You'll make it bro... The process getting in is a pain in the ass and they are so anal even at training at Floyd Bennett they are strict about certain things. Some people think Floyd Bennett is a joke. It's not. You will definitely come out of their learning something. This is the place where All your questions will be answered so don't be afraid to ask. I won't name supervisors name on here but their are a lot of knowledgeable minds their that give the RIGHT information so take advantage.
After training this job is a BREEZE!!! Just show up on time and do the right thing.
Yeah man this waiting game is a killer. I hope your right about September since only 75 are going in lol cause another year doing school bus and waiting to get hired is gonna be another year of torture lol.
West side Bronx 17 or better everyday some days 2 loads. That's 24 and better
lol Yeah the Bronx is great! I get cranky when I do over 8 tons. 2 loads man you guys are nuts. The foreman there must laugh every day at how they have you guys trained.

Lol, I'm also a West BRONX guy, and I always look at the positive of it, they want 2 loads and that heavy weight, but to me if you can make it out here, then if you transfer and go anywhere else it's going to be a piece of cake..

Make it out there? That's not a badge of honor. 2 trucks = taking money out of someone else's pocket if guys did the right thing. Hell 5 days of recycling doesn't equal 17-24 tons where I'm at. Get out as fast as you can. Your back will thank you.

I hear you on that ur back will definitely thank you, that's y I say if u get stuck out their after fbf, if u can handle that weight then for those who do transfer out and go somewhere else, doing collection should be no prob..
The FAS calculation isn't really that bad, to me what I really think sucks is the SS offset, which hopefully we get back at some point... and there being no increased benefit for years worked beyond required service... that hurts
NO
NO NO NO NO NO NO NOPE NADA GTFO LMAO
Screw that damn increased benefit working beyond required service nonsense. Do your time and get out. Out of the department, out of the city, out of the country. That's why half Staten Island got on before I was 6 lol.
Just finished with everything for medical but the xray and blood work, all went well at Beaver they go through your results with you so you know how you did. My blood pressure was a tad high cause of nerves so I had to take it again and met the requirement 140/80, fail is 140/90 just so you guys know.
Off to Green Point will update you soon...
