Out-of-State and I missed my appointment for Transit so how do I realist?

[TrackWork-75]

Hello everyone,

 

So the short and skinny of my issue is that I received my paperwork for Track-worker 5016 one week after the date I was suppose to be there and I have been Out-of-State (Seattle, WA) relocating as well.

 

I contacted MTA Employment on the phone and all I was able to surmise was that I would have to

 

1. wait till after Thanksgiving, so the previous list could be audited and then

 

2. I would be eligible to relist and in doing that I would...

 

3. be called in when the next set of new hires where being called (what I was told was in January 2013).

 

Here is where my issue begins, I feel I would get better information if I physically went over to the office (meaning flying in to the city for a day or two) rather than getting fragments of what I should do from the office representatives that I encounter over the phone.

 

If I flew in could I get things changed on the spot? or in a few days?

 

I have a part-tme job here in Seattle which I'm biding and saving funds with but should I let them know that this is more than likely a done deal? I mean transit is UNION not hourly.

 

Moreover, and my main point is, it seems that beyond a fax that I will need to go down there to do any changes to get my position. Is that true?
