  1. The KAKA Backpack: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07RHQ3VTJ/ref=twister_B07RDM553K?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1
  2. Just a question: From the time when Medic started this topic until now, has anyone noted a change in RTO? Those who were hired from this list around that time have at least 2 years in Motors. Good, bad, indifferent? Move this over to the Crew if need be please. Thanks!
  3. Ken, park at Concourse Yard, which is on 204 & Jerome Ave (3911 Jerome Ave), i.e., directly next to Mosholu Tower. Then, take the 4 @ BPK to WDL.
  4. It may well be your own coworker...true story.
  5. Drive to work if it takes less than half the time to get to your report location by public transportation. Otherwise, dark sunglasses, black jacket over the shirt, take off the cap and get some sleep until your stop. AND, black shades in your room 'cuz that sun will keep you up if you're pms or mids
  6. I heard about that...CRICKEY!!! Talk about pick guilt. 9 months for us. Then again, TA hired T/Os over the past 3 -4 years like they were going outta style.
  7. For real, i actually got 3 days out of Brooklyn & 2 days on the GCS.
  8. must be on the job past probation to be CBTC. as long as your answer is written somewhere official like an updated signal guide given to you by Service Delivery and/or more importantly the rule book, you WILL NOT fail the signal exam
  9. Keep this in mind when you finish school car & decide from then if you want to stay on the road or not: Study your rules, 2 pages a day, 5 minutes a day. Read 3 bulletins a day...You too can be a bearded grand wizard of teaching.
  10. I'd say go B Div. Only because your "probation" will be over fast with the yard stretch in between school car. That'll give you less stress on the road.
  11. ScreechyFlange...that name is classic!!!
  12. Somebody better let us know WTF is goin on out there in schoolcar...
  13. From what I see, TA has gone the way it is because of those with no common sense and the new generation of whiners/snitches...not cool. Get some sense and grow some. Take responsibility for your own actions and don't be crabs in a frikkin barrel. This job is extreme enough without hacks and quacks jackin up the system even more. Peace
  14. There's currently no longer a contract with Saf-Guard. Call the Union & they will further instruct you on what type of footwear to purchase and will be approved by TA. I'm doing the same in the morning. p.s. System Safety and SDOT will be no help with this issue. They say we're stuck with one pair (we only got one pair at the beginning of school car) until there's a new contract agreed to.
  15. What is this thing we call the yard again...? Retirement...NOOOOO!!! You cannot expect to give an entity half or more of your life and even more of your soul and expect anything of value in return.
  16. Yeah, but you aren't gonna work weekends. You will, however, be working all three shifts.
  17. You will be off on weekends until you're out of school car. Then, you're scheduled by the crew office.
  18. That is something you need not repeat...That gets around and School Car gets bumped up two notches and we'll be XX FOR 5 years. Keep that kind of info very private.
  19. Urbanski is cool; just be about your business. That said, he's the one you hafta turn your posting papers into.
  20. Rrrriiiiiight. Get the threads at JC Penney.
  21. That is good good news!!! Congratulations!!!
  22. Thank you to everyone for your wisdom, support and guidance. I'll make sure to keep my school car habits. I figure as long as my operation is guided by safety/rule, there should be no issue. I WILL be asking questions. Good luck and be safe to all who are just starting and still in school car.
