They'll prolly send you to Bedford park or 207st. when you live in Bklyn or Queens...They'll prolly deny yur request for a day off,give you late jobs depending on yur tour.You gotta remember that they NEED you so if you run,they gotta find somebody to fill that job.This is only if you do it ALL the time...Once or twice don't count.

There's two types of OT...one you sign up for and one they give to you if yur sitting on the board say for 4hrs. and they find you a 9hr. job on top of that.Now...you can tell them I'm only gonna do 4hrs. which will be yur 8 hrs. for the day or take all the money!(13 hrs.)I say forced because if you don't do it,the crew office has ways of getting you back.

I gotta be honest with u...The money is good BUT you will see a change in yur personal/family life.All TA cares about is moving trains and that's it!Do you know how many family functions I missed??These people don't even wan't you to get a day off in RTO!Like I said...Operating the trains is cool, it's just the BS that surrounds it.Enjoy yur 9-5 while it lasts!lol If money is MORE important to you then you'll get lots of it(forced OT) down here...

You have no idea how ANNOYING that was!I was hoping something else would happen...

I HATE people like that.Just do yur job man and leave people alone!

Maybe a door problem,circuit breaker,control-cutout etc.One time I was on the A line and my C/R closed the doors and I wouldn't get indication.I called RCC hoping I could get this thing of the road and they told me to keep it in service!!!I was P*ssed!!I had to pick up an RCI at Euclid and use the buzzer-bypass(allows you to move the train without indication) all the way from lefferts to 207 st!When I came in 207, I notified the T/D and they were furious!They had to get this thing into the yard ASAP.They asked me the same question I was trynna figure out-"Why didn't they take it outta service?"It's funny because they NEVER believe the T/O...lol They NEED conformation from someone else...You could have a Terrorist on yur train and they'll tell you to pick up the RCI in route!
