Thank you. I firmly believe that there should be an age limit also. This job entails a lot of responsibility. Think about it. You are in the driver's seat transporting up to 2500 people. At one-time airline pilots were forced to retire at 60 (now 65). I'm in decent shape, but not what I used to be. This job is not easy work.
I feel honored to be considered for employment. That is all I wanted. My situation is this: I cannot be dedicated to the job as required. You must eat, breathe, and sleep transit, at least for the first year. My wife wants to travel, enjoy the summer, hit the beaches, etc.. So do I. I have the resources to do so. So will a lot of those on here that will be hopefully retired at my age with a decent pension.
I see that many are really pumped up and enthusiastic. That is great and I am sure they will make great transit workers.
