    Quote below pasted from UPRR job listing.

    "Qualified candidates will be paid $4,000 after completion of their second week of training, $6,000 after completion of their probationary period (approximately 6-7 months following start date), and $10,000 after an additional 180 job starts/work events post probationary period (approximately 18-20 months following start date), totaling $20,000. Employees accepting any portion of the $20,000 hiring bonus will be required to stay with the company for 12 continuous months of employment from the date of receiving an installment. Any employee who terminates employment before 12 months following their last installment will be required to pay back the full amount received."

    Damn good job if your willing to work hard.
    I think that is more of a factor than not passing a whizquiz.
    The vast majority of younger generations have no concept of what it really means to work HARD.
    Yeah, your outside in all types of weather at every hour of the day.
    Yeah, your gonna get dirty.
    Yeah, you might get hurt and your gonna come home from WORK tired and sore.
    Your gonna have to set your social life aside sometimes.

    I swear I see some of these "Soy Boys" that whine if they have to lift something over 20 pounds and cry at a paper cut.
    The most important thing to be learned from those who demand "Equality For All" is that all are not equal...

    No kidding. As my body has decided to revolt against me it would be even more difficult if it required manual labor.
