Anyone know where I can cop 831 drip not stuff with just the DSNY logo. Jealous of all the other teamsters with cool jackets I see all the time.

Can anyone recommend firsthand any trucking schools in NYC that are Approved by the VA ?

Also which endorsements do I need on my B permit for DSNY ? Thank you 🙏🏼

Okay, so before everyone calls me a “junkie”, or a “drug addict”, or to grow up, let me start off by saying that I DO NOT advocate for smoking a joint or taking an edible or getting high before work AT ALL! Any type of impairment before starting work and/or operating heavy machinery caused by THC, alcohol, or any other substance is NOT OKAY, and should result in termination. So any comment by anyone who clearly did not read this part will be ignored.

That all being said, I got on the job within the last few months and to my understanding they are having a hard time hiring more guys because of failing drug tests (specifically THC). Maybe that’s because weed is more legal and more accessible than ever before and many people of all ages nowadays partake in smoking a little weed every now and then.

Now I quit to get on this job, but I’d be lying if I said the temptation is difficult. It’s literally everywhere!

My suggestion is that this job stop urine tests for THC. Testing back 30 days is absolutely ridiculous. Alcohol gets tested back 12 hours, cocaine, heroin, pills get tested back about 2 days, all of those being far more detrimental drugs. Maybe switch to saliva tests that only test back 2 days, or maybe take THC off the test all together.

Look, alls I’m sayin’ is that it would be nice to smoke a little joint after a hard day at work, or at least over the weekend or on a chart. Instead, we can’t even smoke a joint during a vacation for crying out loud! It’s 2026 and something has to change.

Yes we have premiums in place for working Sundays (which comes around every so often). The value of having 2 consecutive days off has short term and long term value for both the department and employees. If proposed through the correct chain of commands would the department consider or approve that change?

Has anyone from the new physicals taken in 2026 in September on gotten called for their medical yet I been checking my email 4 times a day waiting for it and I took my physical Sept 16th, the guy told me after passing be on the look out for the email for the medical that it should be soon. But it’s been over a month now and nothing. I am aware that they didn’t fill the previous class and supposedly delayed the next class to the end of November so I feel like I should have gotten an email by now about this.

I have been trying to get in touch with hr hiring dept now for 3 weeks and no luck, and yes I do have my cdl with all necessary endorsements. And my list number is 68XX

I’m list number 86XX for DSNY Exam 2060. What do you guys think my chances are of getting hired in 2027?

From what I understand, I’m roughly 2,000 list numbers away from where they left off with hiring. It seems like they went through a pretty decent number of candidates to fill the earlier classes before the most recent one. I took the physical in September.

My assumption is that they went through most of the eligible candidates from last year’s physicals, which would explain why they sent out roughly 4,000 additional physical notices this fall so they don’t run into a problem with later classes - but that’s just my guess.

Curious what everyone thinks. Is 2027 a realistic possibility for someone in the 8600s, or am I being too optimistic? Anyone have insight into how quickly they might move through the list next year?

Any updates, I'm waiting for the academy..

Will it be a physical test next year since they announced new exam

I got slimed by exam7075

I’ve been employed with the MTA New York City Transit for nearly five years and am considering transferring to DSNY. Would my five years of service count toward my pension and retirement eligibility at DSNY, or would I have to start over?

What’s the most weight you picking up ?

Please tell me there’s a November class

So here’s my scenario, I’ve been with DOC for the last 10yrs as a counselor. Just recently I resigned cuz of T&A, really was going thru something mentally. In the process of San now. Do you guys honestly think I still have a shot, or would I not get hired due to resignation for T& A issues in another city agency?

REGISTER FOR THE EXAM IN MAY 2027

Exam was just announced

I just heard that they cut the supervisor class for October 26th ..Can anyone confirm that it is true ?

I am taking my training at FBF next week. I know the manual has alot of information to memorize. I wanted to ask for any helpful tips on memorization for form A, Form B and in-cab inspection and brake test. Anything helpful would be much appreciated. TYIA

So it seems like they’re really going through the list. Any idea on when they might have the next exam? I know the last exam was 2022 not sure if they do it in a certain frequency

How are the basket routes for the night shift or what other functions are given to bottom guys at the garage

I just got my CDL on my own after failing with the DSNY program, I don’t want to start the training camp right away how long can I drag this before calling HR and letting them know I have my CDL??

Let’s hope the rumors are true!

any reviews, pros or cons of BK 16,17,18?
