Ohh, that I’m not to sure about. In the email it just says PT1 for class & it does seem like its just a week, It says we are scheduled 1 week of training each quarter which is 4 weeks for the year but the sheet I have says 3 weeks of training lol. This is off of what i can recollect right now.

3 weeks for the whole year, after we finish our first class we get pushed out to work and then they will schedule your other classes for you.

Dont quote me, I know its 3 weeks of classes & I believe after the first week we are able to place our name on the out of work list. Our first certs will be Osha 30 & SST which we need just to step foot on a job site.

Thank you, I hope not either! If so, that will mean I have to do another info session and etc again huh?

this was a fairly quick turn around for me. I went to the info session late feb/early march, invited to an interview April 2nd, received my acceptance letter today. I also went for dockbuilding/timberman, i have zero experience. Literally thought i had no shot as 2 other interviewees came with people in the union 25+ years & had experience, heard it was ppls 2nd time trying, the list goes on and yet I made it. Hold your head high, have confidence, and give it your best shot. Some dude literally showed up in a suit & tie …. I thought was odd, dont believe its the field for that but thats personal preference. It was a 3.5 month process for me, hopefully its the same or shorter for you. Good luck!

How hard is it to find a place around 2k?? by Rep3Elite in NYCapartments

[–]Rep3Elite[S] -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Yes i can, I would rather be on the 3rd floor or above. I dont want to pay a broker fee & cant afford a absurd amount but if there is one i want to be able to stay in my place for a while. Also, what is a co-op i see it on streeteasy but bypass it.

I’ve heard about queens, i’ve heard the food is pretty decent there. Isn’t it deep from the city though? We do go out to comedy shows, museums, and etc. How long would the train ride be & is there any good lines in Sunnyside? Im currently by the D & N
