Eastern Winter

I spent most of this past winter sleeping in my truck in the parking lot of a railroad yard. I don't know how many times I looked out my window and thought, "What the hell am I doing here? How did I wind up here?" The obvious answer is that I was chasing my job, which is something my Union Officers tell me I should appreciate. Apparently, railroaders have the unique opportunity to travel even further away from their families to keep working. It's better than the unemployment line. Right?
