hey dude! I'll ask the questions that my tortured heart is telling me to ask. Much appreciated!!
1) How do you like the program? enjoying it? Is it more or less what you expected? fun? exciting? or is it so difficult and harsh that it makes you question your existence?
2) I'm a Train Operator for NYC Subways.....in your humble opinion.....is it such a high risk leaving a job as a T/O to become a Loco Engineer? Failing the LETP....will mean losing the subways job. Again your humble opinion! Assume being a train operator isn't the best job in the world and leaving it won't be an issue for me.
3) Culture is super important. How is NJ Transit's culture? friendly,nice,caring? Or are they a crime against humanity? trust me i got STORIES from subways in NYC-Transit for ya!!
4) How's commuting? do you find yourself driving for hours on end trying to get to the training grounds to learn/post? How is getting to the Yards/Terminals for you? Where is a good place to live/rent out an apt during the 14-20 months of training?
Well that's all the questions I got for tonight. Anyone who wants to lay down some cold hard facts be my guest!! TIA.
