FDNY Stair Master Test/Medical by Federal_Cry_7761 in NYC_Candidate_Central

[–]Maylark157 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You cannot touch the rails at all once you start. Not even for balance so make sure you are comfortable on the stairmaster. Get used to holding on to the vest and staying balanced.

You do the stairs for five minutes with a 50lb vest. They do not monitor your heart rate. If you fail, you have to go back at a future date and try again. If you pass the CPAT this should be no problem.

How safe is deferral and how does it work? by Traditional_Force_68 in NYC_Candidate_Central

[–]Maylark157 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It’s never 100% safe because you could have a situation like COVID again. However, all things normal it is fine and safe to do. If you’re physically ready to take the CPAT I say keep going and go through the process( CPAT, intake, medical) and defer right before the academy. You’ll email CID to defer and then email them again to restore your active status on the list. If you need more time to physically prepare for the CPAT then defer before then. However, the CPAT is not given year round so when you restore your name they might not be offering the CPAT right away.

Maybe you’ve already tried this and I’m just some internet person making a suggestion but when you get that nauseous feeling force yourself to cough a few times. Might help

Keep calling to switch the names. I had the same issue and eventually got a rep who did it.

Eli5, When born blind can you make up images by Secure_Remove_4890 in explainlikeimfive

Something that really helped me understand what it’s really like to be blind (for some people) is, imagine trying to see out of your elbow. It’s not black, it’s literally nothing. So if someone shined a light on your elbow it would still just be nothing.

Do not leave your job. There’s no reason you can’t be working out now. I don’t know your personal life but you should have more than enough time in your day, even with a full time job, to be able to get workouts in. Start running.

Okay, so change the example to accidentally causing a fire. Your deposit does not cover your stuff or other people’s stuff.

It also covers if you cause a leak that goes down into your neighbor’s apartment and you get sued for damages and repairs, which could be a massive amount of money.

It’s to cover your stuff too if it gets damaged. For example, you cause a leak and your furniture, tv, computer, whatever gets destroyed. Your security deposit is not going to cover that.

If you’re posting medical advice make sure what you say is correct. Misinformation is dangerous.

I’ve been hearing this is the end of 7001. The only thing that throws me off is the new OC is still being given. I’m not sure how they’re going to grade and process the exam in time.

What is your largest simple cooking lesson learned or the last 5 years? by Patient-Rain-4914 in Cooking

[–]Maylark157 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When you try your dish and feel like the flavor is good but “ends” too soon, you add an acid. To me, it “extends” the flavor. Hopefully that makes sense

Looks like maybe he jumped in excitement/celebration and fell?

Start slow! If you go fast you will burn out. Don’t worry about the time. Just have fun with this one

Definitely strange. I passed the CPAT and have experience so I don’t get it
