  1. 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.

  2. 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.

  3. 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...

  4. PM's for now but when yur Xtra-Xtra,they CAN and will change yur tour when need be!You can go from PM's to Nites to AM's It can be rough man...

  5. No stable jobs until about three years or so when I'll prolly be able to pick.For now I'm a floater...Everyday is a different task and different hours.No stability at all...

  6. Man,I'm all over the place...There's a class out so I've been getting yard and switching jobs like 3-4 days out the week.

  7. You have no idea how ANNOYING that was!I was hoping something else would happen...
  8. I HATE people like that.Just do yur job man and leave people alone!
  9. 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!
  10. It's a double edge sword!They wan't you to know how to do it BUT in most cases,they'll tell you to wait for an RCI and TSS.Heck,you wan't a break right??Why try to figure out a problem when they pay people BIG bucks to trouble-shoot these things..lol I'd wan't the train taken out of service so I can chill.It won't hurt to know what's going on tho!This seperates the T/O's from Motormen...NYCTA(NO YOU CAN'T TOUCH ANYTHING!)
  11. If he keeps finding little things to write you up for then you can...You have to have history with this guy and write down dates,statements,times etc. to build a case.One incident like this is kinda petty and WOULD get thrown out anyways.TA got BIGGER fish to fry!NOW...if a bunch of people get together and write him up then they'll see that possibly he could be the problem.Supervision hardly gets in trouble tho...the worse thing they'll do is kick you out the area.
  12. If that's the same one we're talking about on the ,he wrote up a C/R because he/she didn't ask "partner you got the line-up?" But...the T/O told the C/R "Partner we got the line-up" BEFORE he/she could ask!This SOB wrote the C/R up and said "tell yur mother I wrote you up!"(C/R mom is a TSS) Straight up sucka move...:tdown:
  13. Oh HECK yeah!Yur gonna get tests weekly.These tests give yur TSS's an idea of who's slacking or picking up the information.If you fail these little tests(Quiz) they'll give you a second chance.After that you qualify for tutoring which you get paid OT for....Yur gonna get a midterm and a final.Yur gonna get a Yard practical exam,brake-pipe rupture practical,road practical.(all HANDS on)I'm telling you, once you pass schoolcar it's a BIG relief!
  14. lol...Oh SH*T- Get outta here!!! That Ol guy is a lazy Bazztit and so is our "BUGGED MAN".Those were some classic moments at Pitkin.

  15. Oh yeh??? Savor the moment because that doesn't happen often!I see yur in my neighborhood now...Welcome.I'm getting alot of switching jobs which sux because they start late.

  16. So you finally got PM's??? Good for you!!! I don't know how you guys do the Nite thing???It sux!!!! I hope they NEVER give me NITES or AM'S...Now you get to operate that "JUNK" on the Victor...lol Welcome!

  17. lol...yeh the Bar!!! I forgot...lol

  18. That's cool...Yur acting like a Vulture T/O picking up all the students huh??lol Yeah,Yeah...Hope you didn't do the Freddy Flinstone with the winky wink and the wooty woo!(Builds character)lol

  19. God I HATE 44's!Yur prolly use to them now since they keep you over by Lefferts.You guys getting some 46's I see...I wonder why they gave u a student being that yur still a senior probie?

  21. Did you go to graduation?
