I drive trains for a railroad in New York.

We just started putting camera's in all the cars starting last year. They record 24/7 whether you're sitting in a yard facility sleeping or operating down main track at 80mph. They've already begun using the camera's to write people up for the most asinine, egregious nonsense, even on people who aren't on duty! I used to believe the Railroad Unions (we have teamsters) were the most powerful unions in the World, but they haven't said a word. Why do I even pay union dues?

I'm tempted to flight instruct up to my ATP and then apply for Ameriflight or something. The pay cut might be worth it, as long as the pilot unions never follow the railroad down this path.
