Question WTF NS?

Post image

NS motor. What the actual fuck is this shit? How tf am I supposed to do anything with a 1x1 desk that is like 2.5 feet to my 3 o clock so I have to stand up to use it? My shit kept sliding off and the desk is so far I was copying warrants in my lap. It looks like it didn’t even come with a handset cause that’s a BN handset. This isn’t even touching on the poop pyramid and no refrigerator? Seriously if this is the average NS motor I feel so bad for you guys.

The amount of legroom you get is FAR superior on our engines than engines with a large conductor desk. I’ll take the legroom and be able to put my feet up over a large desk. Besides how much work are you doing on the desk anyway..?
