I've read this before. But i have a question. Since when did they start giving a PSYCHOLOGICAL exam???
Forty-thousand people took the written test. A much smaller number was eligible for the physical test. Then there was a battery of medical and even psychological exams, followed by days at the department's personnel division filling out reams of paperwork, including a 20-page booklet that took me an entire hour to complete
i agree, the dsny website only mentions a physical and a medical
Under the new contract, which goes from 2007 to 2011, top pay for new guys coming on is 5 years; for guys who are already otj, top pay is still 5 1/2 years.
The 2 questions I had were:
1) Does the starting pay bump up after 6 months like the NYPD, FDNY, & DOC? I remember under the old contract the starting pay was $26k & then it bumped up to $30k after 6 months.
2) "After we get the 3, 3.15, 4,4,4,4 ( 6 year deal) we will be at top pay of "; What are you referring to as far as a "6 year deal"? You lost me on that one. Where are you getting those numbers, please post the link.

Copsandwich....How much time do u have on the NYPD? I got some info from my friend. 12 holidays off a year, every sunday off & rotating day. Top pay at end of contract march 2011 is $67,000, long is $1,495 , $900 for uniform allowance and if you work on the truck piccking up garbage you will be getting $63 a day additional.
At end of contract you will make about $85,000---PLUS TIP$$$----- with no night diff or OT. If you work a Sunday or your other day off it is all DOUBLE TIME but there isnt as much OT as NYPD until the snow hits. They are paid weekly. Once you become a senior guy with 15 or more years you can work a sinlge man truck and make about $96 a day
After we get the 3, 3.15, 4,4,4,4 ( 6 year deal) we will be at top pay of
$74,062--Base
$3,700--long at 5 years
$3,133--holiday pay
$1,100 --uniform
$82,000 no night diff or OT

jackieboy,links are from dsny offical site and the dsny/nypd rant link i put up a few pages ago.the dsnyrant link includes nypd info in the comparing of the two jobs.
full coverage and no limit on sick days .....you cant take off every monday for migraines,read j.kidd, but if your sick stay home.dsny made my friend go to their docter ,maybe he had a pattern or he wanted a few days off..not sure.play it by ear and go to your own docter for a note if needed.
Thanks for the link. Now I understand that the "6 year deal" was referring to the NYPD contract & not DSNY. BTW, any idea on what sanitation police earn & how you get on? How long does it take after you become a sanitation worker?

jackieboy,i think its 5 years maybe a little less not sure .if i remember correctly the more time you have on the job the more extra credit you get on the test .a newer guy would have trouble matching the score of a vet because of this.they have results of the test on the chief...alot of guys took it..must pay alot more.
