“Just know when you’re furloughed you’re still working.” Pretty sure when I work I get a paycheck. Biggest down play of a furlough I have heard.
get a spot award!
Away from home 36 hours at a time. Missing your kids games, birthdays & holidays. Working in blizzard to scorching hot weather conditions. Never knowing if you're going to get called to work at any random time. Being furloughed is normal. First 5 years or so sucks, etc. Wow, sounds awfully tempting 😂
If you make it 5yrs without being laid off...
@@absolutelynonameslef Sounds like another one of those jobs that was really, really great at one point - but as time as passed on - has a become a shit job/company to rely on. Who knows? I can only go by watching videos/reading comments.
@@jackshittleI think you're pretty spot on
It’s what you make of it. 12 years as a conductor so far. It’s definitely not for everyone. I enjoy the job. Make a lot of money with only high school diploma. Benefits are great, good retirement at the end. Takes care of my family very well. But yes definitely are negatives. Miss a lot of family things, holidays birthdays all true. Sucks when you lay down to sleep and the phone rings to get up and go to work. It is what it is though definitely not for everyone that’s for sure. It’s for me though I don’t mind most of it anyway
@@25mmapdsti just got the offer. Anything I should prepare for or be aware of? I’ll be training out of chicago
My father worked for 32 years. God bless you guys. I missed my Dad.
This sounds abusive towards employees. Without the union they'd be ground up by UP
it's painfully honest, but it's an honest job and keeps america on the move, god bless you all who work for such an icon
Thank you for finally updating this. Now please update the online test to reflect the right position a person is applying for and not off the wall with other positions.
At first i had a dream to run the trains with the UP. But I attended trade school, obtained my associates in diesel technology. And a good thing i did because now i am working at a contractor shop on locomotives. 60 percent of our work comes from the UP if the local Fleet shop gets backlogged, we get that backlog. I knew multiple friends who work for the UP and they had given me 2 options personal life or the UPRR. I decided to go personal life and got a skilled trade learned. Yet getting educated in diesel tech, you can work on the railroad with a steady workflow and have a set shift 100 percent of the time
Let me guess no union & definitely no RxR retirement
@@joekillingsworth9002 we are a union shop. No railroad retirment but we have a masive company 401k plan with a huge match
What school?
Just like my job. Seniority is everything. I used to say. "Seniority sucks when you have no Seniority". 16 yrs later I am a shop stewart and #1 in Seniority in my district. So hang in there you will get Seniority as time goes by. Union jobs are the best.
Not all of them. The post office fucking sucks. The union does absolutely nothing to discipline abusive managers.
I'm a union steelworker and we go by seniority.... Local 979
What if you die or retire before you get seniority?
@@studinthemaking than you don't need to worry about it.
Retired conductor here, The RR is a very dangerous and stressful place to work. I would not recommend anyone taking this path. 30+ years with no pleasant experiences, only stress, harassment, and lack of sleep. You're better off driving a truck!
Ya I can verify that
36 years
"Stress, harassment, and lack of sleep."
This sounds exactly like my life at the moment
No you’re not….
Not what?
@@bluefire10169
From an actually UP employee, I'm surprised at the level of honesty here.
If you're looking to hire for the railroad, listen very closely to all the negatives, cuz theres a lot especially when you are new.
Furloughes, bumps, being away from home, working odd hours and stress are just SOME of the negatives. Managers are always looking to fire you, the UP really doesnt give a single fuck about you. The unions seam like they are always making deals with UP for the benefit of UP and not their own people. Some of the people you work with are actual scum of the earth and will treat you like you're dirt, while others are some of the nicest people you will ever meet.
You can make a lot of money yes, but it ain't free and to some people, the sacrifices they make outweigh the benefits in the end.
Be safe out there.

This is exactly what it is I just worked as a YRT (limo driver) And got treated like a doormat just working not even a month and got a slug put in me and thrown in the dumpster just because I didn’t answer one page call that was put on my own personal pager instead of theirs of course this was back as you can guess in 1997

No. They just want you to know what you’re getting into. Some people are cut out to work for the railroad. Others should stick with Chipotle.
Did it for 37 years,they are speaking the truth! Be prepare to work anytime;days,nights,weekends,holidays,snowstorms,95 degree weather,kids birthdays,school functions etc! And don't forget you might be on a two hour call,phone rings and be at work in two hours,no matter what your plans are or what you are doing at the present time!

This is a tight employment economy....2019.... can you imagine how employees will be treated in a recession???
Not pretty at all...

But its always something.

LOL!!! interviewed 13 times, brought them years of knowledge from the Illinois Central and Illinois Railway....im now a shareowner and my dividends are worth more than railway pay....
This is something I want to do. I want to give it a shot, I’m a student and graduating this year. I have always loved trains. 😊
90 minutes? Damn imagine never being able to make plans or have a life outside of work. Fuck that, that sounds soul crushing. You’d pretty much have to have no social life to make it work.
It really isn’t that bad
when your parents arent rich, and you have to make a life for your kids and your self, you gotta work a lot man. This generation wants to work 5 hours a week and get rich to go play all day. Don’t work that way bud ,
Wonder if my ole arse cam jump on rail work from field network engineer . Worked just as weird hrs as RR workers, we get calls late night, early am, ontop of scheduled jobs then chill,, then job ,job, job traveling 🤔😁 ...
@@creamythroat It do work that way if you go into the right field. And that can be done whether your parents are rich or not.
This is what all the self-made billionaires do. Work themselves into the grave for 45 years and then get a small loan of 3 million dollars and then it's all private jets, islands, and skyscrapers with your name on them.
I quit csx after one run after the redi center...that place is so fucked up...got me a union trucking job. Life is grand!
"...cannot be outsourced."
Which is why they are pushing to have trains run themselves I suppose.
That's not gonna work in dark territory what they are really pushing for is precision railroading with long ass trains
It wont work, especially for switching
@@llkjjjss Dark territory can be made light. In fact there won't be signals in the future. The technology to fully automate trains has existed for over 50 years. It's just a matter of cost and time. It is much easier to do this with trains than cars or trucks considering you have fixed rail paths and central communication rather than an "open" road system, and we are already heading there on the road. For trains, first it will be one-man crews, then full automation. There's a good chance some of the design and programming for such systems will be done abroad, so in a sense the railroad will be outsourced. It's sad, but it's the future... of everything.
@@VikVaughan there is alot in the dark. I'm out here everyday my dude
Unfortunately, every time I heard people say, "it won't work", the railroad made it work. Look at F.R.E.D, distributed power, RCO. I've heard people say RCO technology will never work and look now. They are all over the yard. If they want something, they will achieve it. Somehow.

If you ask any railroader, they will tell you... the pension is the ONLY reason to work for a railroad!
Driving trains is "not for everybody" but neither is "working for a living".
Engineers don't "drive" trains. They "run" trains.
@@michaelo1929 Always gotta be that one guy.
@@michaelo1929 in other parts of the world they’re called drivers. So yes, they also drive trains.

No one wear safety glasses and ear plugs on a daily bases.
Jared Klock
You do when you work for the railroad. All day long, every day unless you're in an office or a vehicle with the windows closed.
Bill Perri
It's not that loud all the time, but it can get loud before you know what happened. It doesn't matter though, it's a rule! Mechanical people wear hard hats, safety glasses, hearing protection, and steel toed lace up boots at all times unless in a designated non PPE area. Train crews wear a safety vest ( as do mechanical people working around live tracks ), safety glasses, hearing protection, and steel toed lace up boots. It's a critical rule violation to get caught without any one of those items while working.
'Real' employees aren't wearing all that shit. It's just for show in the video
@@veasg I work for the railway here in Australia and I never wear ear protection whilst driving a train. Most of our locomotives have cabs isolated from the frame and engine noise. I started as a level 2 assistant driver or conductor, then progressed to block school and driver under instruction and then driver or engineer. I've made $140k aud .oneyear. Usually I make around 100 to 120k per annum.
@@B10Mman I've worked for the Union Pacific since 1994 and have never worn any of that PPE other than a vest. Not even safety glasses
My dad was a engineer and my grandfather was a conductor for Union Pacific in Wyoming
I want to work for them when i get old enough. Cant wait.
Once you get done with your video games, you might want to talk to actual or former employees before making that leap of faith.
@dayzodzn For the first 5y of owning your own business, you literally draw no profit. Making $50-$60k a year is a pretty good job.
That girl engineer-- is she the one that Shawn in Council Bluffs yelled at?????
"Here I have a career"... 30% no longer do! They were all fired in the past 5 years. Railroads served Unions notice that in next 10 years, they want to do away with 85% of the conductors!
Former employee at union pacific ...the training has been horrible since covid.someone just recently died at the company due to lack of training .instead of u getting a furlough they just fire u for breaking 12 critical rules. If u are married be careful many employees are divorced because of long hours. Only thing good right now is the money and benefits
They won’t hire an educated mechanic with a medical background that will literally move thousands of miles away from home to get said entry-level job.
Because your background sounds sketchy
It's a sign of the 'good' things to come your way...like a runaway boxcar.
It’s called over-qualification. They’re afraid you’ll demand they pay you more money for actually knowing your shit.
Bruh they literally offered me a job, not once but TWICE and all I have is 3 years construction experience. So, they probably verified your work history and found out you're fos.
Oddest job I ever had....they hire you then try over and over to fire you.
._.
I’m a first officer for Delta Airlines but trains do interest me.
Indulge in model railroading. You get the best of both worlds: flying an airplane and running trains they way YOU want to. And you remain clean.
I was a train conductor (train assistant in my country) for 10 years here in South Africa, Transnet Freight Rail...I loved every moment of it...but it surely isn't something a person should do for a long period, you will be sick in you elderly days (most retirees don't live long). I'm still recovering from a lack of a healthy sleeping pattern, I am 34. In the time I was working the tracks, I studied towards being a mechanical engineering technologist...now I design locomotives and wagons, best time of my life behind the desk, working Creo Parametrics...The sound of the hooter still traumatizes me!
I had a genuine interest in becoming a conductor and this video really put me off. The whole segment where they basically said "this is gonna suck and that is gonna suck though" just sealed the deal to not pursue it. Any promotional thing that gives you warnings about it probably means it's going to be a lot worse than what they're saying
Atleast they’re honest. Watch the one about the CSX conductor, nothing but a bunch of under the sheet lies.
Well they’re just being honest.
@@linkfan95 If I ever go into the railway industry, I'm gonna avoid CSX like the goddamn plague.
@@derpcade Avoid UPRR while you're at it too. Union Pacific, Norfolk Southern and CSX are the top 3 worst companies to work for - and consistently so. Not even joking, you can google it yourself
That said, BNSF has loads of troubles too; mostly with their union.
Lol, yeah, the video is like, "working here really sucks and you'll have no free time or a life for at least five years." Sweet, where do I sign up?? No thanks
The company will never be lairs they will always take care of you best thing is they have sharp knives to stick you with so the pain can last for years
Currently I'm doing Union Pacific's former Southern Pacific in Oregon between Klamath Falls and Eugene with MSTS Train Simulator. Looks like a very dynamic railroad with a wide range of scenery between farmland and forest and twists and tunnels.
How is it? Are the test im training hard? How are the furloughs?
Ahhhh ask Fritz.
Were not hiring 35 years ago sadly :-( now pushing 60, kinda hard to go into this line of work. So i'll stick with the postal service
The best part of working for the railway here in Australia is there is no furlough. We have rostered work and blank line or pencil working but no furlough. You can work as a casual and work when you wamt, this is mainly guys who are "semi retired" working for pocket money.
There are really only two positions in life; at work making money, or away from work spending money. Why not work for this company and make a very good wage so when you do have time at home, you have enough money to enjoy yourself? It definitely helps if your single or your children are grown.
There’s a lot more to life than making and spending money

Well if you don't want medical insurance, no seniority, no pay increases, a safe work environment , no representation in the event the railroad unfairly fires you and a good pension you can live on beyond age 60 with 30 years service, then go for the employment that lacks these qualities.

I see railroads offering huge sign on bonuses to get people to sign up but still get turned down. Any tips on applying from the UPRR UA-cam channel?
You have to be a minority or a female so they can hire you and brag how "diverse" they are.
Tommy hit the nail on the head......inclusion and diversity is now one big brand new bullshit sector of many corporates to brag about how inclusive a company they are......
It should be down to can you do the work well. Not making up the numbers.
From the railroad employees that I've talked to over the years, and from what I've read online, I would say at least 50% (maybe even 2/3?) of the people they hire have friends or family that got them in the door. I've applied at many points throughout my life and the excuse I've gotten is that I have no railroad experience.
You got to realize the Railroad wont call you right away and it may take a while for them to get in contact with you
Now I know why there labor shortage
As a current railfanner and future crew member for the Harvard subdivision, it feels nice to give railfans hornshows and yell at treaspassers on a daily basis

I have an AA degree...I spend a lot of time in the locker room waiting for some suprentendent to decide what we're going to do that day........which is usually sitting in the locker room waiting for somebody to tell us what to do and when you turn 55 they start trying to bully you into early retirement.

I'm surprised the P.C. goofy UP management doesn't say "brakeperson" or "switchperson" today.
We usually say when the trucks stop, America stops. There’s nothing wrong with that! I say, when the railroads stop, that’s when America stops!!
