They don't deduct uniform $ from your check? Nice. Can I ask what ur check comes out to after taxes and dues?

OOOF!! When is the next negotiation or ate they negotiating now? I'm assuming as long as someone gets in before the new contract is settled they would get the old contract deal no? Or are you guys working without a contract righ now?

Thats what I thought, but I figured I had to be wrong. So you pretty much start out at top pay. Lol

Does everything change come contract negotiations? ie; vacation days, top pay, etc... This is purely out of curiosity.

Any current or former t/o's that absolutely hate(d) the job? Maybe a few pro's / con's from seasoned veterans. I took my DT, and if I get the final approval this will be my "fork in the road" when determining whether to accept or not. Just trying to get as much info as possible and this forum has been a huge help.

(bonus question) I know I saw this somewhere but I've done some searches and I can't find the answer.... What is top pay for a t/o and how long does it take to reach?

Thanks all.

Which division has more elevated lines?

$30.0375/hr

Do they want traffic violations listed under the criminal section of the 5 page book?

Business casual.... Whatever that means. Cackis and a polo maybe?

FOUND IT!!!! Whewwwww.

Uh ohhh. I'm having trouble tracking down my birth cert and ss card and I have to report Wednesday am.!!!!!! Anyone have some insight as to what may happen in this situation? I'm going to dig through my file cabinet when I get home from work, worse case I can get a copy of birth cert mon or tues, but the ss card takes 10 days.

1st of all, wheewwww!!

2nd, I'm not saying this to be a smart ass, but why do they make you sign a release saying they will look at your credit report and use it when determining your eligibility then?

How much of a factor is credit history?

Just got a call. Big envelope sitting at the house from the MTA. List # mid 400's.

Anyone want to share what a typical pay check amounts to for a T/O in school car, and a few months out of school car?

Élantra or anyone else that has started school car. Have you received a paycheck yet? Curious what it comes out to after dues, taxes, benefits, etc.....

Is there an advantage to doing it that way?

If you're a conductor wouldn't you have been on the promotional list? That one is finished as far a I know.

That's great news. I'm mid 400's and couldn't be happier about switching careers at this point in time. Crossing fingers that all goes well.

I like the way he responded to you like you were an a**hole for asking. . . . Elantra, I'm curious..... How are you holding a job and going through training?

I doubt that's true. The last promo exam for T/O only yielded about 800 candidates and they went through that list in about a year.

I wouldn't worry. A ticket is a minor infraction. Anything involving fingerprints would be more along the lines of what they're looking for I'd think.

Thanks. I want to et all my ducks in a row. I'm hoping for a letter before the en of the year. Mid 400's. Need my diploma, and work history too.

Side note, what's the uniform like? Is it Dickie type pants? Do they provide it? Do you get to ride all mass transit free of charge? Ie; LIRR, subway, busses, etc,,,,, last question. How do they break ties from the exam? I've heard everything from the day you registered, to last 5 of your SS #. I share my score w/ a lot of people. I was lucky enough to be towards the head of the pack.

Thanks for the info.

Is there an easy way to get your criminal background? I had an incident when I was 17, (20 yrs ago) still in high school. Stupid, but still an incident. I'm pretty sure it was expunged but I want to make sure.
