This means for example instead of being a 1433 out of van court on a southbound 1 they move you “up one” or “up three” intervals in service ….so if trains are running every 6 minutes instead of 1433 you’d be a 1427…or up three would be 1415…..etc.  basically you’re moved ahead of your orig scheduled trip

Maybe I'll get u as a student and not even know it ha. 

And yes the lack of crews is taking a toll on us.

I move around so I don't really have a set line. But if u have those lines next week likely u won't see me esp since I don't do mids

The Fox Line is always running Flexes due to lack of TOs more than anything..

Especially the Highway  Both Tours...

Im usually flexed leaving STL at least three four times a week on my first trip.

Another reason i went early PMs this pick it was killing me last Pick(Had a later job no more 0230 AM clearing times for me).

No email, I’m 21xx. Can I ask what’s your second digit is?

[Ricardo924]

Just got the email to come in for pre-employment on Monday! I know that the information is buried somewhere in this thread, but what should I expect?

Congrats!  First off, what’s your list number please? In for format of 19xx or 193x.  Second, pre employment is basically a drug test it’s nothing too crazy. Just make sure all your paperwork is complete so it’s a smooth process at 180

Also in conjunction with what @STtoMTA said, be sure to bring your state ID (driver's, non-driver's or other qualifying ID), social security card, birth certificate or passport, and HS diploma or college degree. Everything must be an original document.

If you have tickets or violations that you have pending or haven't paid off they will tell you to pay them there on the spot or they will dismiss you and you will not take the drug test.

In the employment section of the paperwork they sent you, be sure to put the reason why you left that job. Indicate if you Resigned, were Terminated or Laid-off. They will ask you to write that in if you do not already have it there.

If you have been drug tested in the previous 2 years (I believe) for a job they will ask you to sign a release for the results of that drug test.

Make sure you have to urinate once you get called. If you do not have to urinate once you are called, or you do not produce enough urine, you will be given water every 30-60 minutes for up to 3 hours before you can try again. I hope my memory is correct on 3 hours. It's something like that. Just make sure you gotta go either by waiting or drinking water.

Bring something to drink because the machine is notorious for not working (what I was told when I took the drug test). You will be there for a long time so if you need a snack bring one.
