1. You came in too slow dynamic brakes drop out under 15 MPH.
2 that's right you got Ecam which gives you are hard time when you release and try to get it back. Also harder going at slower speeds.
You will develop your own way the more you work with them. I use to just take 20 to 30 pounds stopping it.
Its always better to pick the division closest to you. Your going to work long hours so your commute has to be a factor. If you live near coney island as an example can you handle a 4 AM report at 241 Wakefield in the BX
We have a T/O shortage in A div do to high turn over for various reasons.
If are stuck in a Div you don't like just keep writing a request to switch. When you have enough senority to pick a job in the other division pick it and then yes school car and post over again exept your just learning about the div and equipment.
Yeah RTOman I agree you can have fun with the job. However got to be on point at all times. Its too crazy the simple stuff I deal with the supt tries to turn it into a bigger problem.
