Hey guys, congrats to all. I see a lot of people asking about these positions. I don’t think it makes a difference on how they are picking, I was 7xxx (it’s been so long I don’t remember my actual number, just that I was in the 7xxx’s). I am in my 10th month now, almost done with probation. There has been many classes since the class that me and Milano was in so don’t look at those numbers to measure when you will get in.

The reason for they say duffel bag is because you have to carry your bag when you cross the tracks. You can get a backpack, just take it off your back when you have to walk the tracks.

I think we are in the same class

Email the person that contacted you

The 6601 exam expired after 4 years. It was reopened because of COVID. A lot of MTA workers retired, leaving a lot of jobs open, that’s why they reopened the list. We are lucky

I was on medical hold because of my hearing as well. Go to an ear specialist and get a hearing aid. As soon as you get it, let the ear specialist give you a hearing test. Take that to the office to clear your medical hold. Don’t wait on anything from them

Not every day but often and it’s not about speed

Listen people! I see everyone is looking forward to becoming a conductor. If you were on medical hold because of your size or maybe you are a big person. Start exercising and stretching. If you cannot climb up on the train, you will not become a conductor. Be honest with yourself, you will need the strength of your arms and legs to pull yourself up. When was the last time you did a push-up? Lay on the floor and get up, if that takes a lot to do, you need to get your body right. I’ve seen the oldest person in our class do it but a much younger, overweight person couldn’t. Go for a 20 minute walk every day, you will be surprised how fast you will loose 20 pounds, I know because I did it and I’m still walking. They show you the easiest way to do it, even short people were doing it. Get your body right.

Tomorrows class is virtual via zoom

If you ever been arrested before, make sure you go to the courthouse and get a disposition, you can’t complete the final process without it.

Anybody in the class that starts Monday?

Just cleared my medical hold and took another drug test, what’s next?

Whichever doctor has been monitoring your diabetes that’s who you go to. once you get the paperwork you have to send MTA an email for another appointment
