I am 19 y/o and work for NS. I will make about 52k a year, but after taxes, tier 1/2 retirement, union dues and job security, it’s not that much for being on call 24/7 and working 16 hours on my birthday. So my thought is to move 200 miles away from my home town to work everyday on a money pool. Or quit the railroad completely and find some other good paying job
