Only a matter of time.Then LIRR. Then subways. Then buses. "When 1 is guilty, all are guilty". If proper safety equipment was installed in the cab car this would not have happened. |

Tell me about it.I've had more than one on one battles with TSS' about that. "You preach proper rest, but in and out all day without lunch or 15-20 minutes of it or just having enough time to take a piss on your so called recovery time is just as bad as coming in with improper rest". Response: a shrug of the shoulders or a "call the union". The fact of the matter is the union has no say over work programs, they can only voice their "concerns" to management. |

The Onion does have a say in the matter. That say occurs at the bargaining table.LION has sleepy apnea, and has a breathing machine. Him can sleep for 10 hours at night and then after breakyfaste him can lie down for a nap. WHAT IS IMPORTANT is Sleep Apnea does NOT disqualify one from running a train or driving a truck. What DOES disqualify CDL licenses is being in non-compliance with the use of your CPAP machine. The machine keeps a record of all of your sleep and is reported to your doctor and non-compliance to licensing authorities. If you have a machine USE IT!!! I dreaded the thought of having to use such a machine, but now that I have it, it is the most wonderful thing that has happened to a night's sleep. And in case of an "event" it will proff that you are in compliance. ROAR ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz................... |
