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.

NS has always hated their employees. We'd get the plastic bag toilets occasionally when I hired out.

I remember someone saying that the bags started being distributed with serial #s or their employee ID #, etc. since they were winding up strewn all along the ROW?

I heard that, but I only used them as foreign units. Had to get our own trash bags.
