Greetings,
I applied this week for a job as a track maintenance laborer at BNSF. I'm curious as to what the job is _really_ like - what can I expect and what will be expected of me if I'm fortunate enough to get the position. Thoughts anyone?
Thanks,
John
"A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly. Specialization is for insects." - Robert A. Heinlein
