Either you take a short vacation to be local or don’t take one at all until you know where you stand. How much do you want this career?

I honestly don’t know why they’re hiring so much. They already have just about 20 people hanging each day. I don’t see this huge retirement coming that soon. Same with the Engineers with 2 or more Lone Rangers . ESA isn’t nowhere near done. We will see

Those solely up to you.

Gotcha
-
Well the no LIRR trains to get you to your report time isn’t your fault. A late or canceled legal deadhead is their problem not yours. But I agree with everything else you said.
-
I don’t know. They probably will look into your past or they probably won’t. I don’t mean to get into your business but I hope there was a reasonable explanation for your poor attendance. Reporting for jobs at the RR are on a different level from Transit. Your first year will not be easy.

Just a little tip for people who are going through the early process of becoming AC’s. Prepare yourself develop good study habits because after you think Signals and Definitions was the hard part , it gets even tougher for book of rules, slightly easier for air brakes and fares . But all those weeks , you must study and study everything they give you. I’m not going to go into qualifying because that’s a whole other new ball game. But you get the picture. Good luck everyone and it’s worth your time and effort. It’s a great job.

Study EVERYTHING !

Wait until after the holidays to hear something.
-
Correct , when it comes to picking jobs.
-
Retirement , just like you said does start that day. But seniority is king over retirement at either LIRR or MMR. If you hire on one and go to the other RR. You lose seniority. Which can control the jobs you want, vacations you want and more importantly money. I advise you just choose one and stick with it.
-
You can’t get no answer because there isn’t one. The RR moves at their own pace when it comes to hiring. It could be quick or it can take some time. Just be patient
-
Share it.. It couldn’t hurt. Most of us seen and heard it all.
-
No , you can be put in the August class in a weeks span.
-
Nope.. it’s been that way for years . You either make the cut by putting time in too get it down or you don’t.
