Success7 Posted October 21, 2012 Share #601 Posted October 21, 2012 I had the same ticket. I owed 82 cent on it. DURING my interview they sent me across the street to satisfy the situation. Yours is paid and they have no record of it stop worrying so much. I was hired by the way. When is your start date if you don't mind me asking? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RTOMan Posted October 21, 2012 Share #602 Posted October 21, 2012 Jeeze. Will they really not calm someone if they forgot about being reprimanded 5-10 yrs ago about some minor b/s? I'm sure they check previous employment but do they really get a file from previous employers? YES!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RTOMan Posted October 21, 2012 Share #603 Posted October 21, 2012 (edited) All I will say is remain consistent with the information you provide... Yep and follow the instructions to the letter like another poster said. "READ" and understand what they ask for.. Trust me in the long run in your time down here you will see what this means...

trainman Posted October 21, 2012 Share #606 Posted October 21, 2012 Important question: Those that filled out the 21-page-booklet. Did they ask for previous employers/current employers phone numbers & addresses??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Success7 Posted October 21, 2012 Share #607 Posted October 21, 2012 Are you saying I'm toast? FML! I should've known better! Relax, you will be fine. There was a couple things I forgot to list employment wise but guess what, I let the appointment officer who goes over your paperwork with you know and I start tomorrow. They go over everything and will give you a sheet to fill out whatever you were missing or you wish to disclose. As long as it isn't anything serious you will be hired. I totally forgot about a couple things, they don't sweat the small stuff. Just don't lie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bernardo Posted October 22, 2012 Share #616 Posted October 22, 2012 Hi guys. Thanks for all the info. Couple of questions please: What is the magic number for Blood pressure? Does it depend on your age? Is it OK to be on BP medication? Do they check your credit? ( I hope not!) Im in the 800s. Any guesses when I might get a letter. Thanks to all , especially the guys who are already T/Os and take the time to help the new guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
traintrain Posted October 22, 2012 Share #617 Posted October 22, 2012 Wow. I kind of figured there would be a higher percentage of people taking the job. With the way the job market is right now and all. Pretty sure like myself a lot of us were hoping to get called on these three classes. Hopeefully that post is true about another 120 T/O positions in the first Quaternary of 2013. If any of our future seniors can confirm it would be appreciated... Yes, same question here...( i didn't see an answer to RobbM post...did i miss it?? ) But yeah, any insights to what might be coming beginning of 2013?? my # is under 1500 and hopping to get in before summer 2013...any chance? just like some other people out here...I AM TIRED OF WAITING>>>has been Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Success7 Posted October 22, 2012 Share #618 Posted October 22, 2012 First day was all paperwork and speeches. Over half of the train operators in this class is from the promotional. Mostly former bus operators. So this isn't a full OC list class. No word on divisions yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LexAveExp5 Posted October 22, 2012 Share #619 Posted October 22, 2012 THATS WHY they're only in the 70s on the O/C list. Its a mixed class Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BX Girl Posted October 23, 2012 Share #621 Posted October 23, 2012 I know someone who's list # was in the 80's who started today. Not much more than the 70's that was mentioned earlier, though :-( I'm in the upper 500's - keeping my fingers crossed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trainman Posted October 23, 2012 Share #622 Posted October 23, 2012 To all applicants, when you filled out the 21-page booklet did they ask for previous/current employers addresses or phone numbers??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pelham Bay Dave Posted October 23, 2012 Share #623 Posted October 23, 2012 I'm hearing they going to hire about 120 new T/O's by the end of the year. There suppose 3 big classes by the end of the year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
