Did you call?

Yea no answer….. just ringing. Since I already have my CDL I’m putting in for USPS Motor Vehicles Operator. I still want this though but I’m trying to take my mind off of being annoyed with the lack of communication.

Has anyone else emailed the pre-employment email to reschedule the pre-employment processing date and haven't gotten a response back yet?

Three emails in nothing yet…..

Yes and after sitting there from 9:00 am to after 3 pm to be told, I will not be able to do the drug test because of the parking ticket.  I went in there once before and a guy had a ticket, he rushed out paid it and came back and they took care of him.  This time the Manager told me as long as I leave out to come back I will be rescheduled.  Don’t know which is right/wrong.

I thought they check all of that stuff at the beginning. I would have been pissed too that’s almost a work shift. But hopefully they call you back quickly. The drug test is good for 90 days. How long is the medical good for?

Unless you want to go through the process.  I was on medical hold, have health issues and had to get lots of info and results fro my doctor too, but I was eventually cleared.  Now I don’t know why every time I think I’m moving forward with the next step is like the little things pushing me back.  I will love to ask them what’s the issue.

I’m sorry you have to go through that. I’m surprised the didn’t let you through after the parking ticket. That’s petty. Did you ask to speak to a supervisor?

Good afternoon.  Did you get a call back yet?  If not just keep sending emails to different people over there to get their attention.  When my sister use to be on my back I use to get mad at her, but I realize you have have to be persistent when it comes to have someone respond to you.  I even emailed the big boss and I got an email that same day short while after.

Good evening, I guess that’s what I have to do. I’m trying to be patient but like you said I have to be more persistent. I feel like I’m so close. Like they are short, and a bus drive was complaining today about that. So what is the hold up? Thank again Kennedy and Andy as well.

Does anyone have a number to hr in which they actually pick up ? I would really appreciate the information. Thank you!

Can’t. They’re closed.

No I mean first thing when they open.  If you called and emailed and left word it’s definitely the next step.

So after getting that garbled voicemail from an MTA number, I’ve called the pre-employment number like 20 times and it just continues to ring. I then called the main office at 2 Broadway and guess what…HR isn’t available to speak to. So the person took down my information and told me I’d get a call back…that was 2 weeks ago. 

Are you thinking to go down in person ? I certainly would.

I heard the person who is responsible for the scheduling is on vacation.  I figured they will proceed after the holidays.

Happy holidays and thank you for the update.

Good night.  Did they called you for Medical yet?  I have a coworker when on 12/13 and did not get a call back yet even he has no problem passing his drug test he said.

Please let me know if/when they get a medical date.

Yes. 

How many days after the test did the email come? Also approximately how many days after notification did you have to go back to Livingston? Thank you. 

Has anyone who took the drug test last week got notification to take the medical yet?

Lost my social, they wont take a copy. they gave me instructions to reschedule once I get it. Social security office is wait list untill Jan 11 2022. Once i get it I guess I'll reschedule.

Is there a class almost every month? 

I hope i don't miss my opportunity but yeah so unfortunate of me. Ill get by in the mean time...

I ordered a copy of my SS card online. It came in like a week. You don’t have to go in person. I hope this helps.

Maybe my post is invisible. But if you look a couple posts Up, you will see I posted the next class date. January 2 is now being scheduled. 

I don’t know how I missed that. Thank you @lornaevo.

Good night.  Do u know when is the next class?

Remember I went in for the P/T Bus ooerator. I don’t know if it makes a difference as far as training but I will ask specifically about this exam.

Good night.  Do you know when is next upcoming class?

I will ask but I overheard Jan. I didn’t get a specific date. But next time I’m there I will check with one of the employees.

Actually my appointment was for 3:30 pm. They had people scheduled after that time as well.

I walked straight in and went upstairs.

That’s  very telling of an individual that person has poor driving  habits and all of those points attribute to being pulled over by the police because speed, red light and bus lanes enforcement. cameras don’t incur points  i wish them well but i also think they should look for another position I wouldn’t trust them with a bus and the responsibility of transporting people 

I think they said he had to wait 3 years to reapply which was like wow because I think points drop off 18 months after conviction. I totally get what you are saying though.

congrats! I guess I didn’t make the cut. =\

Don’t say that. Did they give you a list number? I’m in the early 500’s. 

Just came from 180 Livingston, just found out  they allow up to 6 points for bus operators. I felt bad because someone got turned away for having more than that. As soon as you reach a window they take your IDs and run your license. I went today for another exam I just wanted to give you guys the information.

Normally, when you switch over from MTA Bus Company to MaBSTOA, or MaBSTOA to NYC Transit, the answer would be "yes" and you wouldn't have to redo the 10-Day Training Session out of Zerega. However, since both of these are for MTA Bus Company, my "educated" guess would be no, however I would save a copy of the pre-employment packet, either digital or physical, in the event they make you do it over again.

Make sense. The job history is the most aggravating part. I was hoping it would be just ten years. I will definitely make copies.
