Slow down or stop to let a bike pass you. You’re better off behind them when you’re trying to qualify

anyone being canvassed from this list? What’s the best way to defer appointment?

Thanks. Do you have a number for HR?

I see… I spoke to my union rep and he told me I can come back within a year, probation or not, if I decide that sanitation isn’t for me. Not that I don’t believe him, but I was looking to confirm that with someone from transit.

That’s what everyone tells me but today it’s cold and raining and I’m chilling on the bus dry and comfortable… I know both sides have their pros and cons but the money is much better in the beginning for DSNY and a big pay cut is gonna be a tough pill to swallow…

Hello everyone hope all the probies on this list are doing well. I’m about 8.5 months on the job and doing well so far. I have been contacted by the dept of sanitation for an opportunity as a sanitation worker. I am conflicted as to what position would be better for me as I am very happy as a BO currently. I was wondering if @+Young+ or anyone else with a way to contact HR for bus operators could give me the contact information. I could be leaving during my probation and I was wondering if that affects my ability to come back as a bus operator if I decide that the DSNY isn’t for me. Also, if anyone has any experience or knowledge about working for the DSNY I would love to hear what you have to say because I don’t know much about the job compared to being a bus operator. Thanks!

Hey everyone, I just had my second probie ride yesterday. As the superintendent was getting on my bus I recognized him from eastchester. He was undercover and wasn’t going to introduce himself but I looked at him and said hello and then he gave me a look and said drive safe! I made sure I drove extra carefully and everything went well. He was on for a while, all the way to the end of the line. So glad it’s over with especially since this ride was undercover!

For an acute turn you need to start turning the wheel before you start moving forward into the turn. It’s something you’ll get better with as you find them on the road but there aren’t any extreme difficult turns on qualifying day 7

Replied!

So that 2/28 class was cancelled??

Any new classes going in from this list? An operator I work with that was already hired got another canvassing email looking to hire him a second time lol. Hope things are well with the rest of the probies on this forum. Everything’s been well for myself so I’m lucky so far. Enjoying the job every day!

Hey dude I am curious what you have to say about the artic cause I am not so comfortable driving those buses either. Mind sending me that PM also?

I’ll be there today at 3
