Thread regarding Union Pacific Corp. layoffs

Directors

The "band B and C" folks keep getting fired and now my director only has 2 people reporting to the position.

Why do we need so many directors and AVP's?

People can say whatever they want on an anonymous page. Correcting someone else’s grammar elevates their low self-esteem and gives them a sense of purpose.

So relax and let the guy have his fun. I’m guessing it’s the only fun he’s been having lately.

Why are we concerned with spelling,grammar,pie charts etc? Is this english class or a job? Does anyone care about moving a train? Guess If higher ups dont care , then we shouldn't either.

"OK" (spelling variations include "okay", "O.K.", "ok") is an American English word denoting approval, acceptance, agreement, assent, acknowledgment, or a sign of indifference. "OK" is frequently used as a loanword in other languages. It has been described as the most frequently spoken or written word on the planet.[1] The origins of the word are disputed.

As an adjective, "OK" principally means "adequate" or "acceptable" as a contrast to "bad" ("The boss approved this, so it is OK to send out"); it can also mean "mediocre" when used in contrast with "good" ("The french fries were great, but the burger was just OK"). It fulfills a similar role as an adverb ("Wow, you did OK for your first time skiing!"). As an interjection, it can denote compliance ("OK, I will do that"), or agreement ("OK, that is fine"). It can mean "assent" when it is used as a noun ("the boss gave her the OK to the purchase") or, more colloquially, as a verb ("the boss OKed the purchase"). "OK", as an adjective, can express acknowledgement without approval.[2] As a versatile discourse marker or back-channeling item, it can also be used with appropriate voice tone to show doubt or to seek confirmation ("OK?", "Is that OK?").[3]

What exactly are you trying to correct about the poster’s use of O.K?

I’ll weigh in “o.k.”?

Ok - exclamation

1.

used to express assent, agreement, or acceptance.

"OK, I'll pass on your message"

What was that about rocks and houses, Bud!?

O.k. What about your run-on sentences and comma splices though? Don’t throw stones in glass houses.

I’m sorry to be the one. But I read this and see people complaining about management making “big bucks”, etc. and yes, they do. But for crying out loud, maybe they make more because they actually know the difference between “they’re, their, and there”.

They’re = they are (1st grade dude!)

There = a place (I.e. over there in the city)

Holy cow people! Learn a little grammar before you complain about what someone makes.

IT cuts jobs 4 times in the last 4 years. They loose a VP to gain 2 more VPs and 1 more AVP. Makes sense, cut the jobs that do the work to make room for more decision makers.

You may have forgot. AvP and directors "earned" that position. They aint going to leave willingly. This is just a bump in the road on the long distiguished career they earned.

And they earned it so good, thier wife is also a AVP.
