NES, DBA Advanced Warnings, forced all their railroad techs working out of the Reno, NV office to lie on log books. We were told to write in "off duty - on call" for hours that we were sitting @ RR crossings.
When their "safety supervisor" was asked to "put that in writing", he said "sure", but nothing was ever recieved by any techs that I worked with.in fact, I've been told NES has had several unfavorable audits by the US DOT, and is close to having their entire fleet grounded. Anyone wishing to help that cause along, I encourage you to file a valid complaint with the US DOT.
My work week averaged 88 hrs per week! I worked for almost two years under these conditions!
