Spent the 1st day filling out paperwork and listening to HR talk. Today's hr session had some station agents but mostly new T/O's btw 60-70 i think. Having problems creating my i-vault account ..."One or more of the values provided are not correct." Has anyone else had same issues?

Any updates from the April Class?

Thanks for sharing your povs @ the footwear. As TO we have to carry x amount of hand tools, supplies, etc...Any thoughts about a backpack?

Got into the 5/20 class, can anyone speak about the footwear? I understand there's a choice between 2-3 types? Any POV's are welcomed...

VicEl: u have a great problem. without too much words (since Success7 already said it) join NYPD.1st take ur name off the the MTA list, i think you drop/reinstate ur list# up to 3xs w/ dcas, (mta exam 8098 should expire either 2016 or 2017). plus u got 2 year probation w/ NYPD, so if u like it stay, but if you don't realize it quick and reinstate your list # and try to transfer over ur time... my 2 cents...

Thanks! Look forward 2 meeting you guys soon...

Congrats! Thanks for the update...

Neimas - thanks for sharing, really like the format/timeline - Congrats!!!

thx and welcome aboard

having worked in 2 different union environments, and in your particular situation, i think it would had a little effect on your seniority. as stated already, the May class should continue as tentatively scheduled by the MTA. Congrats on making the May class - mind sharing your list range - thx... I spoke with my wife about this and she thinks you did the right thing as per the situation you described. i hope it all works out for you when the time is right.

HI ChrisKocur - mind sharing your list# range ex. 85x or 86x - thanks & good luck! bc0v9g9 - 92x; dt 4/18 welcome to the board. thanks for sharing/updating the thread... bc: 92x; dt 4/18

Congrats to the April Class!! When you can, pls share your list# range (ex. 86x or 87x) and you upcoming school car experiences - good luck!!!

It seems that you have gotten your call for medical/final processing. Congrats! Wish you the best on navigating the hr process. btw share your list # range - thx...

Yes correct, from phone call to date for going down - thx 4 sharing... anyone else could add to this as well...

Question @ the Medical/Final Interview: how much time was there between the actual call and the date/time for the medical/final interview? Was it like 24 hour notice, 1 week etc... Multiple replies encouraged since I'm sure everyone had a different experience - thanks!!! bc -#92x; dt 4/18

HI mjddrvr: i wouldn't fret but maybe showing up or calling and explaining the situation would resolve it immediately. Be prepared MTA may have removed you from the list and you might need DCAS to reinstate you. The appointment is basically presenting all the required and completed documents, as specified, plus a urine sample for a drug/alcohol test. When you show up, be prepared to arrive early and stay til 11am, since this is a large office handling other hr related tasks. PS mind sharing your list # range ie 94x or 95x... good luck!

got dt letter - 4/18 - list #92x

food for thought - ok thx!

thx for the encouraging msg - i appreciate it... got my dmv abstract, fbi prints, and received my ssi history. plus once i know my medical date will set -up my own physical in advance... if i missed anything pls advise - once again thx Etrain...

Congrats and best wishes during training. Thx for sharing and please continue as your future, busy schedule will allow...

thx for sharing Gherigfan1... can anyone else share what the previous class sizes were? I thought i read b4 they were about 40 each, except for the 1st class (oct'12) which was a mix of promo & oc. does this make it the biggest class for 8098 yet? r there now more TSS' available for school car too? if so i hope this trend continues...

thx 4 update... gl

HI 182U81 - could u be more specific than 6xx like 60x or 61x? I would call MTA asap...

Has anyone received their DT letter within the 800 range yet? if so thx 4 sharing, congrats, & gl!!!
