  1. Just not at fault accident (person ran into rear of bus etc) other than that attendance is in the 90s percentage wise I very rarely call out...I always do a ton of overtime and nothing else on my record

     

    I was really worried about this and actually debated not going I'm glad I came here first

     

    Do you know hoe long this process will take at all like after the boss and such?

  2. You should definitely go ahead.

     

    The red light camera tickets are a non-issue. When you get the paperwork to fill out, just ask if you have to disclose it, if you want to be on the "safe side". Just don't get any tickets while on probation at the  (MTA) .

     

    The fact that the speeding ticket was tossed, also a non-issue. You'll of course have to disclose this one because it went to court (and you'll need the disposition). As for your firing, did Suffolk Transit clean your employment record? Check with your shop steward to ensure your employment record is clean on that one, if not * honesty is the best policy * and disclose. 

     

    It seems like you have no problems to get this job, you know how to operate a bus, go for it !!! :)

    161 passenger...you work there now? Do you like it?

     

    Well it's a private company that is subcontracted to run suffolk county transit runs....the safety records all disclose everything just mentioned, and bringing me back was based on a last chance agreement if I did anything wrong I was to be terminated....I had no further discipline and left on my own terms

     

    Now I work for a different private company that operates suffolk county transit routes...so all of this shows up still...the tickets for the red light and the termination but I told them about it and still kept me and I've had no issues here in eight months.....does that help your decision?

    Oh and none of those show up on my abstract only my employment history with that company for their disciplinary records and saying I didn't follow rules....

     

    I'm just worried that any one of these can disqualify me and I don't wanna waste my time

     

    But as I said before out of the thousands of operators no one has a scratch on their record like mine...I don't think I'd believe that

  3. That speeding ticket was reduced to a parking ticket. The red light ones are only registered to the bus...I was told honesty is the best policy and if you tell them up front what's going on they aren't too bad....I find it hard to believe that out of the thousands of operators no one has a scratch on their record?

    And should I even bother? At this point I don't want to waste time for nothing

  4. Hello all I just read this entire forum and I have a question that might be a little pre mature but any help would be greatly appreciated

     

    I applied for exam 2301 back in 2011 and received a list number of 15xxx

     

    I randomly called the employment center and they said "actually, can you come and take the boss (bus op selection survey) on December 2nd in Brooklyn

     

    Obviously I said yes but is it supposed to be something I arranged myself to take the boss?

     

    So what I'm wondering now is yes I have to go take the boss....now provided i pass that Is this a guaranteed that they'll call me for medical?

     

    Also, I've been working for suffolk county transit about 3 years now....I've had two red light camera tickets with the bus and I also was terminated for a speeding ticket in their vehicle...BUTTTTTTTTT

     

    I was taken back by the union because the ticket was dropped to a parking ticket and a fine

     

    Should i still go and do this or is it a waste of my time? I doubt every operator has a flawless record so to speak so I'm wondering if it's gonna be a waste and I'll already be eliminated or if I should do it cause I really want to

     

    How long should I expect to wait for all of this processing?

     

    Any help is greatly appreciated please thanks
