I frequently wonder, as a railfan and also a railroad volunteer, about what I would think if a railroad employee came to my job and reported and/or opined on my behavior/efficiency/length of meal break. My decision is that I probably wouldn't like it much, it would be like being under a microscope every day.
Ugh.
Just a thought...

I think most visiting this page have never had the experiance of having a GPS and Cam on them 24/7 at work.
Being told that you backed up 4 times today and are only aloud 3! Driving a tanker truck and getting called you only have two valves open( yes they can tell when you open the valves). Only today the meter guy replacing the meter took pictures with his own camera, showing the old meter the new meter his wiring the wireless test to show it will be recieved outside. Then his cleaned area where he worked. People are walking on eggshells! Why you ask because of all the Ken's and Karen's out in the public timing the Mailman's 30 minute lunch break. Becuse they want there mail earlier!
Reporting that the train left Farmingdale and hasn't shown up at the next crossing for two hours... throws the crew under the bus. Maybe they broke down? But publicly stating it takes 10 minutes and there just woods what could they be doing... just plain sucks!
If you had a job or have a job where you ask "do you want fries with that order" you just don't get it!
