NBTA Posted July 28, 2022 Share #29 Posted July 28, 2022 9 hours ago, Thinklikeamango said: We still get paid pretty generous for what we do. Current top pay for regular terminal appearance is 34.45 and for operator the rate is 36.19 (operator is garbage truck, power washing, recycling, anything that involves driving a utility vehicle around the terminal) What’s the base pay? 22.97 still right? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How long does someone have to wait to get like a Friday , Saturday, Or a Saturday Sunday , I know those types of day offs were for ppl with high seniority , doesn’t hurt to ask you guys get consecutive days off right ?

Does Metro North care if you been terminated from jobs, does that lessen your chances for a interview . And do they actually contact every employer? im asking because a few of the jobs I had in the last 10 years I left on a bad note, my current job I’ve been with them for sometime now .

2ride Posted August 2, 2022 Author Share #43 Posted August 2, 2022 (edited) Last time I had a government job was working at the post office. It was good times because I made the friends I wanted at work and they also showed us WWE/AEW/UFC on television to me and my colleagues during lunch and dinner (I worked overnight). I was wondering if lunch or dinner break at MTA will mean I get to watch combat sports or wrestling also in the cafeteria.

Yeah those days are usually seniority. There's a person here with Friday/Saturday that got hired in November so it can happen but after that person the next person with those days off has 3 years. Saturday/Sunday 5 years. Sunday/Monday and Thursday/Friday are usually available. And yeah our days off are consecutive 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Okay good, I don’t have the best history as far as jobs is concerned, so I was wondering how much past job history is considered. I’ve been with my current job 4 years so hopefully that makes it look a little better. thank you for your response . how is your process going? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can only hope… there were people who had to wait 2-3 months before they found out their test results for the ticket seller position. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
