       I know I am an outsider, and I probably have no right to post anything 
about anything in here, but there was a mention of the Raiilroads becoming 
militaristic.
 
     I have been going through a LOT of job fairs, ect set up for veterans. 
There is a magazine out there called GI JOBS and it is set up for employers to 
meet up with potential employees, that are veterans.
     All the major railroads and Amtrack advertise in this magazine. Big full 
page ads. The reasons for wanting veterans are many. We are used to working 
weird hours, we work around heavy machinery and equipment, that we have to do 
our own preventive maintenance on. We are used to following rules. We have to 
shoulder a lot of responsibility that people our age wound never even dream of. 
 We are used to traveling. All this at a fairly early age.       
     The biggest attraction, so I have been told over and over by people who 
recruit for companies, is that we can pass drug testing. How many 20-30 year 
old civilians could bring that to the table? IF I was 20 years younger, I would 
give the railroads a shot.
