Lol yea, I’m a special case lol. Initially got in as conductor last summer, finished that school car, then got called for TO couple months later, finished that schoolcar, a month in my old job called me back with a sign on bonus for a couple months. Someone at transit told me it’s better to resign at that moment than try to get away with doing both jobs, cuz I could have gotten in trouble and terminated for it. I resigned the proper way and So to get put back on the list if you don’t mind re-doing schoolcar, which I don’t mind at all, after I was done at my old job collecting that extra bonus was worth it for me. So now just hoping they call me before the list expires. But I already got confirmation my list number was reinstated and plus I reached out to Olha again, So just the waiting game again lol 

oh wow! They are really making you redo the whole schoolcar although you just graduated a few months ago?? Maybe they just make you take a refresher course?

Do anyone think the list will close in September ? Or they will keep it open until at least early mid next year ? Just curious. Idk how many more TOS they need but it seems like they need a lot due to the retirements and people not sticking with it

Possibly stay open because they need people especially in the B division can't speak for the A division. But they always missing crews and I haven't seen a test for train operators only conductors currently...

@Schecter wow compared to the other exams sanitation firefighter etc this list stayed open for a very long time. I didn’t think they would even make it to me. I took this test 5 years ago and got an email in May for my 1st P/E. I was shocked. They might reach the 6-7000’s honestly speaking.

Hopefully if not August then September or the next class after, remember not everybody is gonna pass the medical and the drug test. So they'll need to replace those people. 

[TCart]

@Schecter im thinking September as well. August will be great but I think I would’ve received a medical email by now being that classes start August 15th. Either way I’m ready to start this new journey. Staying healthy remaining in shape and ready for the long hours. I work 50-70 weekly now. Sometimes I do 7 days voluntarily so I’m mentally prepared for it.

i would have just kept working ur old job or something new.  a lot of folks who loves XX are masochists

😂 lmao na I really enjoyed being a TO, despite what some might say. I’m all about something diff everyday so I actually enjoyed XX too. I only went back for the bonus and my job knew I’d leave again but was helping them out until I officially need to leave again just couldn’t pass up that dough you know. Lol
