You work with your hands and your head.On a NYC subway, two people must independently decide whether the left or right side doors should open at each station. The doors won't open unless both T/O and C/R agree. The work may involve the hands and brain. However, the door enabler was put in, after there were several incidents of a disconnect between hands and brain. Once you eliminate the noble professions, what's left? The McJob? Welfare for everyone? It's about time we did gave serious thought to defining work, compensation, etc. It's not just blue collar workers. Goldman Sachs replaced 600 equity traders with computer programs. Who's next? For the most part, the buffs and self-styled armchair transportation planners will never understand what we do Is creating and maintaining an unsustainable wage structure one of the items you believe railroading professionals do? |
