Just got told I'm getting Cable along with 3 others. *Inset Sad Face Here* Bro, it’s better than not being hired. Go forth And prosper. Hoping to get the call soon. I’m in the low 400s but I had also signed up for the next exam. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just a question for **tprashad0719** - U was called off but turned it down ? You went for a 2nd pre-employment procedure and see that they put you not in E&E? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What is your start date? I was told I should go on the 8th but they later came back and said the 15th. I am going to ask just to make sure. Have to go to Atlantic to get location, hopefully the bronx. And Idk man, I barely did anything in my previous job. I'm going to file my transfer first day but If i decide i like it then i'll definitely stay. My buddy in the cable section said he filed his 170 the first day but he liked it there so he decided to stay. The power school guys said that Helpers mainly drive, even in the other sections (SO/Zones). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s where im at..BK days..i dont think youll have an issue getting bronx but it will probably be nights. Helpers in Cable don’t drive unless they have CDL. its a 2 week class but it takes a while to go to that class and its up to office who is gonna go. SO and Zones, don’t need a CDL. As for your transfer, you can put it in but it will be at least several months before they honor any transfers. Your buddy is in Locust Night right? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They said 15th but who knows honestly. The teachers told me helpers in SO/Zones don't drive trucks. They drive SUVs and what not. Don't need a CDL.

You in class already at 53rd? I thought you were starting first day like at 130 on the 15th. The supervisors and office guys will be there on the 15th but all the helpers and maintainers are off. The last group that came in stayed in BK until they were all qualified and then got shipped to Locust. About 5 months. Not sure if they will do the same with 3 guys. BK days only has 3 helpers that aren’t drivers and they will probably be promoted soon. When did your friend start in Cable? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
