Changes coming to the Lake Div at Ft Wayne
On Monday June 14, 2009 The Lake Division let go 3 student dispatchers and told the dispatchers that big changes were coming. The rumor is the combinding of desk/territorys. So if you think your waiting for the dispatcher to answer now wait untill their territory is doubled! I hope the disp. union atleast gets them more pay or something for this rediclous move. !!!!!! Yep we have an enormous amount of asst tm's-ost's and ref's that they could trim but no cuspelling of courset the jobs that make the company money not the ones that slow production! Thats the way I would do it Wick "over and out!

I'll never understand this shit. It seems the NS desires to become more inefficient.

I really sick now over this. I think Im going to sell off all my shares as soon as I can. The NS is going to cut everybody who actually has a part in moving freight and will only be left with a surplus of trainmasters who 1) For the most part know nothing! 2) aren't capable of being productive, and 3)Couldn't run a train around a garden!

Harrisburg Division let go 1 student dispatcher and has announced effective August 1st the Buffalo Line desk will be abolished and the territory from that desk split between the Harrisburg East and Southern Tier dispatchers. Safety first!

Birmingham released all of their dispatcher trainees and eliminated a territory. Combined that with another dispatcher's duties.

Are they going to reavaluate desks that are getting more territory for a pay increase due to more responsability & territory?

it comes as no surprise these desks are being combined or cut off. hell traffic on some our districts is down 50% or more. i will say our chief dispatcher on our division has done everything possible to keep his people working, train them on seeing the territory they are dispatching and keeping desks on as he was instrumental in helping getting the people hired and desks added. hopefully business will return in the future and the desks will be put back on.
