A combination of many. 

I'm coming from C/R so there's a bit less info I need to actually sit and listen to. There's a lot of reading though.

Sadly for off the street people I do not think there will be any open competitive exams anymore for T/O. From now on until TA decides to change their mind again T/O will only be promotional which means you will need to be a B/O for NYCT or a C/R or Station Agent in their permanent title (past probation) to qualify for T/O. What ever title you can get that suits you either CR or BO get into that title and pass probation. When they have the next T/O exam you can take it.

People have said before so and so would be the last open competitive t/o exam before...and that turned out to be wrong. You know Transit will keep saying one thing, then do another right after.

Time will tell for sure if they're serious about keeping it for promotional or not.

He's the only person on the planet I can't keep up with when I'm walking.

It was great the week we worked together. None of the students kept up with us.

Any word on any classes for the remainder of the year?

So I guess you haven’t been watching the news about the cuts that’s coming in the mta, definitely won’t be no more classes this year

Hopefully Congress passes the relief bill for the mta I guess we’ll find out January 5 when Georgia has their runoff

Definitely not happening, they're cutting rto jobs and metro north jobs and lirr jobs and laying tons of people off, and also looking toward a raise freeze for 2 years.

I thought Hurricane Sandy taught them this is WHY they can't cut from RTO. 

Cut from useless execs and cut the people with titles they don't actually have -- those people with the title of "Conductor" or "Train Operator" who have never stepped foot on an actual train.

As a friendly reminder, if you can make an effort to hide the last digit or two of your list number for identity purposes, it would be appreciated. As an example, since there are approximately 11,200 people on this list, if your list number is 13,503, you can disclose your list number as 13,5** or 13,5XX or simply "in the 13,500's."

Click here for the Civil Service List (Active) webpage and click here for the Civil Service List Certification webpage. The second URL link is the one you are looking for.

Happy Holidays!!

So... does MTA actually have authorization to fill 200 vacancies, with a hiring freeze, reduced budget etc, etc? Or is this just wishful thing and a tease?

[Brytstar]

Anyone notice the salary change on the certification list? From $34.16 to $37.05

Yeah noticed that, it was definitely $34 for the Sept class. The covid relief bill was finally signed with 4 billion for mta which stops cuts and layoffs in short term, so looks like some hiring may happen early 2021.
