My advice, keep your mouth shut, only worry about your bus, don't worry about time, and probation will come and go and next step is full rate.

Jayhyrule Posted March 17, 2020 Report Share Posted March 17, 2020 Hey all, hoping everyone stays safe during this crazy time. I know this should be the last thing on my mind amidst all the stuff going on in our city and country but I have to ask for opinions. Do you guys think training for those waiting will be delayed further admid all the lockdownd happening? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of the places I applied for internships also binned those positions for the summer and said to apply again for summer '21. Quite bummed out, means I'm gonna have to look for another job which almost certainly won't be in a relevant field. That is if I come across one. Still, there's a reason for everything. Perhaps there's something better 'round the corner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps there's something better 'round the corner. I’m really sorry they ended up cancelling the summer student program. You’re not alone in the fact that im sure a lot of students truly needed the summer job and were looking forward too it. Keep your head up and keep pushing forward. One door closes and a better one will open up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For us new people in the hiring pool, do you think its possible for them to take away our offers? I've come to the conclusion that a full year will pass from my medical date and will have to do it again, but just wondering the possibility if they can pull our offers? Has that ever happened?

Bus_Medic Posted April 15, 2020 Report Share Posted April 15, 2020 Before bracing for the worst case scenario, consider this: I know firsthand that at least 3 of 13 of my fellow technicians at my division alone-who are on covid leave because they’re over the age of 60/diagnosed co-morbidities etc, are opting to fast track their retirements now, rather than risk their health returning to work before a vaccine is available in the next 18 months or so. I’d speculate similar scenarios are playing out on the traffic side of the wall, so there may be a significant amount of vacancies emerging, despite reduced service.

I am not a fortunate teller, I cannot predict the future when somebody said the layoff will happen back then. Also you have a very good memory. I don't know how much seniority you have but I certainly hope you are not at the bottom 1200 in terms of senority. Also if i were you, I wouldn't post ttc internal documents online.

9924 Posted April 24, 2020 Report Share Posted April 24, 2020 Just hang in there, things will get back to normal in time. It's rare to be laid off from transit, but it can happen and given the circumstances, it's not surprising but only temporary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ttcscarb Posted May 9, 2020 Report Share Posted May 9, 2020 Hey guys long time since I posted on here. I was hired back in 2017. hang in there and don’t be discouraged by the layoffs. It is temporary as the operators affected did not have to turn in uniforms or keys. once the city is up and running again. We will slowly see a return to normal. Transit will be even more needed as with downturn in economy come people not being to afford vehicles, gas or insurance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
