Just got the letter about orientation and it reads
(Due to class size, orientation may extend beyond 4:00 pm... 2 additional hours) this academy must be a big class

The lady helping us process paperwork today said it’s 150 people.

Anyone have any experience with the notice of proposed disqualification? Broke my ankle 3 days prior to receiving the PAT notice, so I emailed them to postpone, got the automated email saying I would receive additional instructions in 7-10 days. Never received anything so I called acouple of times when I didnt hear for 2+ weeks, was told to just wait for the next letter. Now a month later I just got my proposed disqualification for failing to show to my PAT.

No it is 75 per class = 150 not a big class like they had a year and half ago.
That is a standard on all classes that due to size time will be extended etc etc

Probably answered already, but didn't see anything a few pages back..... is there a required dress code for uniform fitting?

NYC Union Workers Please be aware that on Election Day (11/7), the BACK of the ballot will have a referendum to vote on a NY Constitutional Conference or "Con Con." Placing it on the back was a DELIBERATE move!!
If this passes, it will be a disaster for NY.
ALL CURRENT AND FORMER public employees (police officers, firemen, teachers, teaching aides, librarians, bus drivers, lunch aides, etc.) stand to lose a great deal, including their pensions!
If you love anyone that is currently or ever has been a public employee, please TURN YOUR BALLOT OVER and vote NO. Please share this.

Make sure you bring in employment verification from this list. Most people had their passports. Basically proof that you are allowed to work.

Yes, and of course don’t forget your driver’s license as well.

They told us today they will call people all the way until Friday to show up for this academy.

You need the documentation. Your valid emt card signed. 2 black pens. Drivers licenses. And the letter which they'll prob give to you tomorrow. Dress well for tomorrow as we had too. The room you report to is 3s-2 a half hour earlier then your appointment time. Best of luck
Also there is a parking garage right outside the foot of the manhattan bridge at the cross of tillary street which was affordable and had no prob with spots.
