  1. Thanks. Any idea of an approximate average hours a new conductor puts in only if forced to do overtime? Does 100 hours a pay period sound about right? How long can/does overtime run for after a shift?
  2. Thanks for all the info. So basically if you're in B Division you can be sent to any of the lettered lines until you have seniority enough to pick. If you're in Division B will you ever be sent to do a tour on Division A? I know there is a shortage of conductors and t/o but is overtime forced/expected? Or can one do their 80 hours and bounce barring anything like waiting for relief etc. Not opposed to overtime, nights/overnights or weekends just want to understand the culture.
  3. Been trying to find some info on the different divisions and systems. I know there is Division A (numbers) and B (Letters) but I'm not sure how the IND IRT and BMT fit into them. Can someone explain how the divisions work and how IND, BMT and IRT fits in these divisions from the perspective as a road extra and a senior conductor. How do you get assigned to a division? To a line? If you get assigned to a division do you only do the lines within one of the three systems (IND, BMT, IRT)? Since all numbered trains are under IRT does Division A only get assigned to the IRT? How does this work for Division B with IND and BMT? When you get your schedule does it include the lines your assigned to or is it a day to day kind of thing? Sorry for all the questions I am really considering a career change and would like to make an informed decision. If I should be asking this in another forum please let me know.
  4. Just to clarify you get paid for lunch? I work for the city but get lunch taken out so bi weekly I get 70 hours of pay even though I am there for 80. Also would likesome insight on how the different divisions work and how do you get assigned to them. I live at the end of the N, W in Queens and would like to know what is the best division/lines in terms of convenience to get to and from work for someone that that lives at the end of the N, W line in Queens.
  5. How many hours per pay check? Is it bi-weekly pay? If so do you get paid for 70, 75, or 80 hours per check?
