Hey man its really funny how you mentioned finding similarities because once you really analyze the signals there are alot of ways you can remember whats what by identifying whats similar. Ive literally built my whole studying strategy around that but the extra definitions still trip me up

Since you’re such a perfect example man, how did you do it? I mean granted we have 5 weeks to study but this is still alot to take in to be able to remember it all word for word by the way the lady that facilitated our overview got in around the same time as you her name is lauren if that rings a bell at all

Alright guys overview done, it was everything that yall said it would be lol. So for part 1 of the test we need an absolute 100% or we get sent home and cant even take the second part. If you make it to part 2 youll need atleast 80% to pass They’re saying the higher your score, the sooner you get called but at the same time one instructor did say theyll be moving “full steam ahead” because of the backup that covid caused so the process may move a bit faster than normal. I suggest you guys form study groups because the definitions aspect is alot.

for those of you considering to transfer from A to B division? Just know its a crap ton more report locations and a lot more to deal with and I do believe there are trains you guys probably haven't even been on like the R46's and the new 179's. Make sure you guys get as much info as possible before you make a decision -

Sixgvd94 replied to whatisacup's topic in Transit Employment
Yup that and like a few latenesses, Once they take you outta service they'll find any reason to let you go when you're on probation. Go look at your file to see what's in there and discuss everything with a union rep. Prevention is better than cure when it comes to going through probation -

Sixgvd94 replied to whatisacup's topic in Transit Employment
For those of you who are in training please be mindful that everything you do fro schoolcar until ur probation is done will be kept in a file. Every G2 you wrote every lateness every evaluation u get from a TSS when you’re on your own is noted down in your file. God forbid you have a bad rep and taken out of service? you’re done for. You’re basically in survival mode until your probation so please do your best to stay low even if y'all gotta wear them raggedy ass pants cuz they will use anything against you. Be on time as well cuz they will let that shit pile up when ur on the road by yourself and throw the book at you when time comes -
