Hiring like mad?

unclepete20 · 12-02-2008, 11:22 PM

Whats with KCS hiring like madmen? Is this related to that arbitration?

And in another question.... How many of your guys are furloughed? and what is your basic day over there? PM if anything. Anything has to be better than Uncle P.

Isn't Art Shoener one of the high ups in KCS, usta be UP? That can't be good as his Rep on UP employee wise wasn't a great one as I've understood form many.

Maybe they didn't like you. Who knows, its just a job.

Art Shoener is history, but there is still plenty of rejects running around. None furloughed on Texas Division. Basic 186 road/ 194 yard.
