Now, im having a bit of second thoughts. On the one hand, being a conductor would provide stability. On the other hand, it'd be a slap to the post-secondary education and the BootCamp I'm doing right now. Aw man...

Tell that to the E crew who took a train full of passengers into the Continental Relay last week because they weren’t paying attention…
under normal circumstances, taking the wrong lineup, of which punching wrong is a subset of, the conductor is required to pull the cord at the next station as per rule. You punch for 8th when you’re supposed to be going down 6th, that’s a CHOW! the moment you get to spring street and stop.
the only exception is taking a local lineup when you’re supposed to be on the express. Express on the local is express unless told otherwise. I personally prefer to be told directly ether way, but that’s just me…
Oh dear...Im guessing there was some sort of suspension for that...I hope. Sounds like a major mess up. Whats a "CHOW"?

Let's clear this up quickly. The Train Operator initiates the punch and route selection not the Conductor. If I'm understanding your question correctly a northbound train leaving Lafayette Avenue only has one option and that's crossing over to the express track to enter Hoyt-Schermerhorn. Although I'm an IRT man I can assure you that any n/b train leaving Lafayette Avenue will make that move. The switch is probably blocked and clamped to block any moves into the n/b local track on the path to the Transit Museum. Hope I didn't miss anything. Carry on
Thanks for clearing that up. Im still trying to find that post on Reddit. But in general, what happens if the operator does a wrong punch?

Im curious to know, what actions would happen if the train conductors chose the wrong punch. I saw something similar on Reddit, but I lost the post. For example, if you're operating the C train, but you forgot to punch in after Lafayette to go on the express tracks and end up stopping at the wrong platform, what would be the proper protocol for such a action, also how rare is it to see a wrong punch?

A question. If you have an education higher than an associate's Degree, do they still want some customer service experience?

Would someone still have to submit their HS Diploma if they have higher forms of education?

Is there a reason why the F express doesn't go to Kings Highway and terminate there?
