    My Gramps was a conductor and his death benny’s paid for the last decade of grammas care so i was attracted by that. The pay was great and the healthcare and retirement are better then most.

    The job was really, really tough though, in ways it’s tough to summarize. Not just cuz of the availability, but the way the the job worked. Worst job ever by a loooong way, and I’ve been a waiter, a telemarketer and a retail worker
