Has anyone been able to get through to Mrs. Watson? My attempts to call the last week and half, there’s never any answer. Maybe she’s on vacation?

Got through today. Still at 1138... apparently all vacancies have been filled at this time. They'll start calling again once theres more vacancies. That's what I'm told

No one need panic about this. There will surely be more vacancies in the 3 and a half year period that the list will be current for. I wouldn’t worry too much about this - it might take the rest of the year but they’ll start calling again. There’s no way there will be 0 vacancies for that long. People retire every year.

They hired off of the last conductor test (whatever it was before 6601) for 10 years. Hiring ebbs and flows...and as I mentioned a few pages back, and got my head bit off for mentioning...a lot of what seemed like whipping through the list was flipping provisionals to permanent.

Once they start making Wayfinder more of a thing and booth work goes the way of the dodo, a lot of the old timers will put in their papers because they want nothing to do with being out of the booth.

Mines expired early this month. I'm still waiting too. MTA is backwards. It might be months before they start calling again.

I wouldn’t worry guys. I haven’t heard back either and mine expired in April. It’s probably just not cost-efficient for them to schedule more drug tests until they know they’re about to schedule more classes. I’m sure that’ll happen by the end of the year.

Bingo.

They had been cranking out classes nonstop - I think it's been a couple of weeks since the last one started. They probably have no need for more classes at the moment.

When I was in my last week of class (around Easter) I was told there were three more classes after mine and that was it for the time being.  They were waiting for more people to retire before they start doing final processing for any more people.  

But don’t be discouraged they pull from these lists for a few years, I’m sure you guys will get your call much sooner than later

I never encountered any Racism down here from co-workers, but there is nonsense from the passengers.  Some co-workers forget they are talking to another adult sometimes.

 

Life in the booth is decent if you can tolerate being in a box for 8 hours and have thick skin.
