Not sure what is going on outside of my service unit, but UP has been laying people off since the begining of Nov. Currently there are almost 100 guys cut off, but all of the extra boards are out of guys no matter what day of the week it is. At the same time the company continues to misuse the AW board and call as many guys off of that as they need. The AW board amounts to nothing but a cheap extra board. Last word I heard was the general chairman is suppose to meet with company officals sometime in Jan. to serve notice and do away with the AW boards in order to keep the company from abusing them any further.
