kevinetics Posted August 15, 2013 Share #1028 Posted August 15, 2013 ok cool. actually, i'm scheduled by the crew office right now for my 3 months in the yard Yeah, but you aren't gonna work weekends. You will, however, be working all three shifts. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poughkipsee Posted August 15, 2013 Share #1029 Posted August 15, 2013 I've heard a few people have worked weekends with the 3 months in the yard. Depends on what the crew office needs. I'm sure they probably try to keep it weekdays, but summer is ripe for vacations by the senior folk. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beneka Posted August 19, 2013 Share #1031 Posted August 19, 2013 Heh enjoy it i dont think that disaster is going to happen again.. For real!! Everyday they looking for people to work OT or to come in on their rdo. Their supposedly soo short on workers.... does anyone know if we're off on weekends during road posting? we were for yard posting, so i'm thinking it might be the same Fair warning, when u get to your road operations, you will be going in Sunday evening! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beneka Posted August 19, 2013 Share #1032 Posted August 19, 2013 As a Train Operator, what is the policy for having a second job, or moonlighting, on your days off. I'm on the list, and my # is close to being called. I know you must be well rested before reporting to work, and there is no way I would jeopardize a job with the MTA. Dude, there's no way youre gonna have the energy to work another job. I thought about keeping my old job as a part time gig(had some killer flight benefits), but its almost impossible...mainly because of scheduling..we as extras almost never start the same time or at the same location 2 days in a row and we definitely dont finish the same time everyday! I think it would be close to impossible to work 2 jobs when you are going to be extra extra for the first few years. You wont have a consitent work schedule or shift. Yup....and even when you're able to pick a job its almost impossible....with a new pick every six months, you always run the risk of getting picked out of your job...especially with us being close to the bottom on the seniority list!!! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RB383 Posted August 31, 2013 Share #1039 Posted August 31, 2013 Did a new class start on Monday 8/26? I heard on another site that there will be two classes in September, one starting in the middle of the month, and another at the end of the month. Does anybody know how far down the list they are? #1322 I think was the last for July. Updates on list #'s PLEASE. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RTOPRO Posted September 24, 2013 Share #1048 Posted September 24, 2013 Yes it is but it's to my understanding that the last group to go into the program just went in. We'll know a little more in the coming weeks. School car seems to be remaining hush about it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
