It's sad to see so many jobs going to contractors. perhaps Unions are partly to blame. Employees also because some of them tend to do shoddy work and fool around when they should be productive. Then there's the corporate lunacy chasing profits. It's expensive to keep up 401K's and increasing healthcare costs for employees. They have shut down almost all the car shops and contracted out the work. Contractors don't pay as much or offer the benefits. It's not just a RR thing. It's the current trend in corporate management.
