NYTech2000 Posted March 2, 2014 Share #2677 Posted March 2, 2014 Well they have 5 different shoes that you can select from. But over all they are not comfy at all!! What if we bought insoles for them would that help? Maybe add a size larger to give a little wiggle room and to add a soft cushion? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LMDNYC Posted March 2, 2014 Share #2678 Posted March 2, 2014 the boots feel just fine, i thought i heard its a different company this time supplying the boots so the older guys complaining they werent comfy had different boots whats wrong with your boots @Ak2346?

Ak2346 Posted March 2, 2014 Share #2679 Posted March 2, 2014 you can bring your insoles with you if you want. alot of people did bring them to try. just the shoe itself is very hard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NYTech2000 Posted March 5, 2014 Share #2691 Posted March 5, 2014 Congratulations!!! =) I'm waiting for the call for the medical (My list # is 2174 and I had my DT on 2/7/2014) it's nice to see that people are making it through! Congratulations again! Funny I am just before you on this list by a few numbers and my DT was the same day. Obviously I am waiting too. Now I am curious, what is the timeline like when you get called back after the DT? Like we got the letter maybe a week prior to the DT, so when we get the call how long do they give to tell us to come in? Then provided we get sworn in that day how long till the next time we come back for what, orientation or something? Also, if we are on medical hold or whatever do we just go back down to where the DT was as soon as we get the paperwork from the doctor? And if so, then we get sworn in that day? How does that work?

Great questions... The suspense is driving me nuts!

I have no idea what I'd do, if you could relax and not work until you get called that'd be great, but not everyone can do that. =( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vee Posted March 5, 2014 Share #2697 Posted March 5, 2014 Yeah I know...but what if I did find something, and then they call me....makes me look bad with new company...smh....leave it in Gods hands...trust me, I know about that obsession....lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RTOPRO Posted March 5, 2014 Share #2698 Posted March 5, 2014 Quite honestly you have two options. Collect unemployment or find something in the mean time. If you could work another job to pass the time you really shouldn't worry about looking bad with a new company if working for NYCT is your ultimate goal. Everyone can understand being left at the alter for almost anything MTA related. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I took my first drug test first week in November, i took the 2nd one at the end of January. I got a call back like 2 weeks later for final processing on the 13th. Being that i had to have my doctor fill out a form, i was on Medical hold for 2 weeks. Once i brought that for in, i continued the process, got sworn in, took fingerprints and photo id that same day. They gave me a few books to take home too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
