Hello,
I was recently hired as union pacific train crew. I have been reading up on railroading and besides from all the "ohh youll never be home, random hours, being jerked around, the weather blah blah blah" that is fine with me, I don't want to hear anything about that so just save your typing.... what I am worried about is the firing.
The whole entire time you are employed is union pacific really trying to fire you? I am having a hard time understanding this. How can a corporation try to fire you even if your not doing anything wrong? They cant try to fire all of their employees can they?
Also does ONE single mistake = instant firing?
I would like some info on this and I am not looking for a speech about "oh the railroad doesn't have time for any of your mistakes will you be able to handle it"
I just want some hard facts about firing and if is it there goal to get you outta there, or is that just some internet junk that is made up from people who are used to slacking off on the job.
thanks
