One of the very few times I bucked against a supervisor was when he told me to take and engine and some empties down to Antonito and switch the Perlite plants at midnight....in January. Not only was it 15 below, but it is absolutely dark as the inside of your pocket in Antonito. No light, anywhere. You can't see if switches are lined, you can't even see if a track has any car in it until your about 15 feet away. I told him, if he needed the work done to do it himself, I'm going home to bed.
Sadistic Bastard.
