Nice! I’m going to do mine with blue sleep. I tried to go to this spot someone on this forum recommended but they’re charging me $600. Once I complete this test which I hope it goes well I’ll go back to livin see what they say. Honestly it suck’s to have to do this, if the nurses cleared me with everything. The doctor sees that I’m a bit on the heavy side and they still recommend a sleep study that blows. Urine, ekg, vision, blood pressure & hearing came back great. Than she tells me I need a sleep study because I’m a bit big. That blows…. 
 

_** mind you MTA HAS SOME BIG PPL WORKING FOR THEM. 🥴

I have a friend that  took the conductor exam with me back in 2016. I believe his list number is around 12,XXX. He hasn’t received anything back from the MTA. Is there any hope for him? Is there a phone number or email he could maybe reach out ? To get info on his status. Thanks for the responses in advance. God bless.

Last thing I heard they where around the 11,200.my friend got in the same class I’m in now and his list number was 11,1xx’s so they working they way up

There's a "school car experience" thread floating around. Continue your story in there... It's nice to have them all in one place 😀

Gotcha

From what my TSS’s been saying a lot of conductors are being fired.MTA are hiring large classes of T/O’s and C/R’s. My class  has 110 conductor’s and the next class going to have just as much people

Yes a lot of conductors are definitely getting fired especially because of time and attendance.

Got hired today for the march 4th class! My advice to anyone wondering “why no email?” Or “why so long” GO DOWN THERE!!! They are literally sitting on paperwork!!! FYI they are moving from 180 so they are packing boxes of paperwork, so you know it’s going to be a lot “missing paperwork” DONT BE NERVOUS! GO DOWN! I went on 2-2-24 to inquire about a drug test I took on 1-5-24 and they sent the email the same day on 2-2-24 telling me to come down today for the medical and got cleared! Good luck too all and thank you to this thread and great advice throughout these months! God bless you all!

I remember my first day when 2 superintendents were showing off that "they can get anyone fired as the pleased" or "I have the power to put you up for termination" shit is just pathetic they still do this.

I agree they still use the scared tactic's to intimidate new people but my opinion change when I saw it in person.plus system safety been on a roll after the 2 derailments and that person getting drag the other day.

I didn’t get selected due to the 4.7.1 rule . I made it all the way to the drug test part and pass. They never called me to do the medical. Do they ever call you back if u didn’t get selected? Just wishful thinking???

[tsanchez2828]

How do we find out which list number they are up too?

[Blu24]

Hi all. I have a question. I went in last year May and was placed on medical hold. Had to go back and do everything over. Hold was cleared but I had to leave the country on short notice for a few weeks (they called me back in September and I did over medical). Is there any way to go back for another medical now or is it this for me since they passed my list number. Thanks.

Did you have them restore your name back on the list?

Hi. Yes so my name was initially taken off when I was placed on medical hold and it went back on in September. Do I have to email them to have it restored again?
