Why do no B/Os report about BusTime errors?? Like the S86 and S90 are obviously to ride/drive with an LFS. I noticed more 7000s on those two routes and I'm assuming it's because of the announcements. 

I dont think a yard distpacher would care about announcements

I just got the canvass email this week. List #43x. 
 

My question is, on the email it says for NJ/PA/CT must have full CDL? I haven’t completed my full CDL. I have an appt next week for the permit.  Do I just need it by the time of appointment or I need it to submit application?

 

 

If you have out state license nj/ct/pa you need the license they won't accept you with the permit thats what it means.you need it to proceed in the pre-employment

Was today the first day of a new pick? I had all different B/O's on my regular runs, and they all drove slow as hell like a bunch of scared old ladies, 

Summer pick start the 27  maybe they were on training i saw a few guys getting trained on the college point routes the other day

If those NG’s were in Manhattan and Brooklyn, they would have plenty left in the tank. But to see the Bronx NG’s starting to go to the chopshop simply means they are not maintaining the NG’s well.  
 

However, I also believe it’s driver preference and plus KB’s novas aren’t coming in as Manhattanville’s. Gun Hill is supposed to get the option order. 

It might be also training issues drivers would have to come in earlier to do the training

Some of the overnight service has caught on. The Q53 overnight service I would say is one. You have multiple buses with anywhere from 14-20 throughout the night. I mean with respect to artic's, it's low...but service operates every 20 minutes...and that's with the Q11 operating on top of it. I caught the Q11 a few weeks ago one night, and I was the only person that got on from Hoffman Drive. Personally at this point, if by any chance the Q53 gets to keep the additional overnight service (even if it's operating every 30 minutes) they might as well just can the Q11. The Q53 can run in it's place (whether it also serves Lindenwood via the Q21 during overnight hours, IDK). 

This won't  happen their don't want the artics in those streets the q21 runs in lindenwood they very hesitant on any detours in the q53

Yea, he gets around 50 mins of layover time after every trip. In fact, on that inbound QM6 trip, he sometimes doesn't pick anyone up so he gets even more layover time because there isn't any drop-off loop to do.

He gets 50 mins layover time if he dont have to do any drop-off you get 20 min to go from the last stop back to your first stop

I have a question about bus operators making ada announcements on buses without the automated system.

Do they have to make ada announcements at every stop? If so, that is a lot of stops to memorize!

The paddles reports have the ada announcement not every stop needs to be announced

How does Bus Time know how many passengers are on each bus? OMNY taps?

The new buses bring a sensor counter by the doors

If they give you the chance to resign you might have a chance after 5 years
