Only thing that is for certain is that we will know which number was called last once the new class starts. This current list has 22 more months to stay open until they can legally close it. The only way that they can close this list is by calling every single person up to #209 before October 14, 2024. So make sure that your record is in order.

So the sick time goes as follows, as per the GS of Support from my depot… the moment your record is pulled for consideration, they go back 3 years.  In those 3 years you have to have 2 out of 3 good years.  A good year consists of no more than 3 instances, totalling no more than 7 days.  So for me I had 1 good year, 1 terrible year and 1 year that had 3 instances totalling 8 days, and thats why i missed the october class.  For literally 1 day over the total.

That info is definitely wrong.. there was atleast 5-8 oa operators at the mac yesterday for promotion.  Only 5 ta.  Unless there is another round of operators at the mac today 🤷‍♂️

This is reflecting all the operators who are going to the MAC tomorrow. So the 5 from yesterday, and 8 tomorrow makes 13 TA.

The GS of support at my depot told me

these same numbers, but he also mentioned that call outs with doctor lines won’t factor into the 3 instances / 7 days. 
 

so you can go above 3 sick instances but just make sure u actually go to the doctor.
