I'm guessing that stands for "Staten Island Rapid Transit Operating Authority" correct?
Maybe the transit guys on here can help, Fred315x is a huge contributor, so he might know. I say this because I think the SIRTOA operates under the MTA umbrella.

I have a friend who did the Staten Island gig. He didn't like it a lot and was THRILLED when he was callled for a motorman job with PATH.
(Of course, since he lived in Jersey City, PATH was a LOT more convenient.)
I would imagine that the assignment is a LOT better if you live on Staten Island.
Hey everyone thanks for the congrats. I was wondering how long is the training? Would it be weekdays and weekends? After the training how will the schedule be? Kefir is it possible you could tell me why your didnt like working there? I am just twenty minutes if i take the verrazano bridge...

First off, Makossa, thank you for the "promotion." But it's still 314X, not 315.
Shar, I was a conductor with New York City Transit for five and a half years. I suspect the training over there in Staten Island is similar. If so, you'll do your training on weekdays and have weekends off. But once you start working, I don't think you should count on weekends. That will probably come with seniority.
I'm not sure how many trips (= round trips) trains in Staten Island make in a shift, but it's probably either two or three. After one of them, you'll have your 'lunch' break.
Best of luck!
