Coincidentally, this is why I tell my new partners and schoolcar train operators that I meet to budget based on *base* pay, and not rosy expectations of perpetual overtime.

Well said, any financial decisions or planning should always be done based on base pay. But that said the notion that overtime is dried up is false. I get offered overtime 3 or 4 times a week.

How do you know there’s a class next week? I don’t think they called people for Medicals yet

Has anyone gone for a medical recently?

[JDS1057]

The next class starts April 10th. There’s no confirmed class after this. However there could be another class confirmed for May or June but not until the April class begins.

How do you know this? They haven’t called anyone back for medical yet! And usually they let you know with at least two weeks before the class starts !

Several were called and sworn in last week. Several more this week. They can call for medicals and swear you in as close to the class date as they want and need.

They just put a new certified list out. All they did for past 2 weeks was pre employment. Unless they called people that drug tested in January

That’s probably what they did… Not everyone who is looking to work down here  posts here…

It’s basically like  any big business. Stay ready so you won’t have to get ready. The process is long so you have to be prepared.

Why rcc puts on blast over the radio almost every weekend if any b division train operators that want to work overtime call the crew office. It's no secret.

Fired on Feb 3. Told I would be rehired. Put my paperwork in to be restored to the list on Feb. 5. Still not back on the list. DCAS keeps telling me 2 weeks whenever I call them. Ridiculous

Trust me, the class will start April 10th. The certified list was March 10th. You can check the DCAS site for that. Several who were re-certified to the list with very low certified eligibility numbers were contacted for drug and medical on back to back weeks and were sworn in for the April 10th class. If you have a high number you were skipped even if you had drug testing done back in Jan. Also if you did drug testing back in Jan, you’ll have to do drug testing again before even being called in for medical.
 

Again a lot of misinformation here, I can only tell ya what I actually experienced and heard and be truthful to that.

Good morning 

I’m a conductor on the B division I’m scheduled for my second pre-employment on 03/30 at 180. I see the next class for T/O is April 10th, thing is I clear probation April 18th. Would I have to contact someone to ask to be placed in the next class which is in August?

I would go anyway. Depending on your list number, you may not make it to the April class

Ahhh ok you talking about the weekends they do this… My mistake.. I can count on one hand the times in the past four months  I heard them Ask for late clears during the week I don’t work weekends anymore … Looks like folks don’t wanna work on weekends… Sigh…

I was told to look out for a email after my pre employment. Do they not call when it’s time for medical? They only email?

Email and sometimes they send a letter, but some people received the letter after the fact.

the modus operandi in Transit is.....when someone is fired they tell them they can rehire them or add them to the list......it's a lie.  they do it just so no one retaliates or do anything violent during the firing stage.  also.....it really does depend why were you fired.  was it hitting 5 home signals within 1 run?  or was it due to missing out school car days due to a medical?
either way - you have been freed from Transit - this a blessing.  look for something you really love doing and respects *** ALGORITHM DETECTS MEDIOCRE COMMENT THAT WILL LEAD TO POTENTIAL NEGATIVE COMMENT; AUTOMATIC REMOVAL ***

Not always a lie. I'm living proof.
