Hey all after a long journey from getting the call back in august for pre-employment in which i had to go 3 times for throughout the months,today i finally finished training out at eastchester depot and secured my CDL license.As my class was appointed on 11/24,its now 12/26.Its a long journey,mentally and physically being in different boroughs at different times throughout the training.As for the 10 day MTA training,its tough.When you go from never driving a bus before and you have your own regular driving habits they go right out the window on day 1.I passed the training on day 9,i didnt make it on day 7 as when they drop you in midtown on day 6 in the middle of rush hour its a whole different ball game.Things i stress here, read the handouts that @+Young+ has throughout the forum here.Be ahead of the game because everything in those handouts will help you through the whole thing.Also if you can,get your CDL before you get called.It will eliminate a whole headache because your then worrying about you 10 day training and then your worrying about studying that whole undercarriage and engine for that CDL test.My brain was spewing out the last month.If anyone has any questions you can shoot me a message,i start my line training up in Manhattan tomorrow.

Sure can

Parking was great I got here 2 hours early just in case,we on lunch now,thanks @+Young+

Just finished final processing and been sworn in,class starts on 11/24,I'm guessing due to Thanksgiving that week.

Yep final processing Tuesday.

Just got the call for final processing next Tuesday coming up.Will be in the Nov 25th class

Pending drug test,I had to take a third one since it was expired,they said I should make the 25th class

My list number is 12*1

Yep it will come eventually!

There saying i should be in the 25th class but that's pending because of the third drug test I had to take yesterday depending how long that takes to eat back hope so .

It was a quick day that day I did my medical and another drug test and was out by 1300.Best of luck!

Awesome will see ya there bright and early!

Update on my end,i got medical coming up this tuesday the 12th,i apparently missed a medical on nov 2nd which they said they sent an email which i never received(checked spam and all).She said if medical goes well next class is Nov 25th.Cant stress if you feel something aint right,CALL CALL CALL these folks up.List 12*1

If there that desperate why are folks going for premployment 4 or 5 times

Backed up lab all day,we did all out paperwork by 1130 we didn't get in the lab till after 1700

I'm going to be going on my third soon unless they call for a medical in 2 days which I'm sure they ain't,I'm going to have to go for another drug test, hopefully third time's a charm.Best of luck to you .

Don't quote me on this but they didn't ask for it,I brought the hard copy with me just in case.

Long day and a drug test and they go over all your paperwork,make sure to have any tickets you have cleared up also.I was there for 13 hours last time in the beginning of October and that was my second premployment already.Bring lunch.

Sometimes I get so baffled the way they call,when. You call the office they say they hired up to 95*, and there only calling folks from the 70* still.Also folks from the 15*0 getting called for premployment.Lol I guess patience is a virtue,just don't understand.Im 12*1 with premployment twice already and it's looking like a third time coming.

Mind telling your partial list number ?And best of luck my friend.

I was there twice already and I'm 12*1

I called today,there still at list number 95* apparently.I told them I had premployment twice and they said just wait again

@+Young+ can probably tell you more

4 points max and I'd plead not guilty and just pay it,they don't want nothing outstanding

DMV should give you a paper copy of the permit before the hard copy gets to your house.I took it 2 days before I had premployment and it was already on the driver abstract they look at ,they didn't even ask to see it since it was in the abstract they pull up.
