Hey Bucket. I had heard for years about what douchebags the LaCrosse crews were but I figured a lot of it was just sour grapes. Well I met a LaCrosse engineer recently and what can I say? Just an absolute prick who thought his shit didn't stink. The thing is, he looked like an uber-foamer. He was wearing pin stripe bibs and an honest to god, straight out of "Casey Jones" pin striped engineers hat, except that it was pulled down all the way over his skull like a small baseball hat. I didn't have time to get the cell phone camera fired up before he scurried off like the pompous ass that he thought we wanted to be.
What a dick head.

You know, I'm sure not everyone is like that, but EVERY crew member I have ever met from LaCrosse, has been like that. When we hand trains over in Northtown, these guys act like the prima donna's of the BN.
I even had one, (as I am stepping off the engine) say to me "Do you know what the rule states about wearing safety glasses with side sheilds"?
Gee, sorry pal, it's 0630, and the fucking sun is blinding me, and I don't have prescription sunglasses. I gave him a whole hearted "fuck you".
