DSNY sanitation test 6063 nyc thread (pros and cons, moved, women)

[Pipez]

A friend of mine went through the process last year in sept. I believe , that he said they pick date at random after the test date to prove residency... Correct me if i'm wrong ..

Thanks SanCop for the great info. 1 Question.. I just turned 21..I do still live at home with my parents and the only documents I would have to prove residence is my credit cards bills and my bank statements that get sent to my house. Is this still going to be a problem when I'm asked to show proof of residence??

See thats the same question I have. I still live with my mother and all I have is some bank statements, a letter from my health insurace company, and some documents from college. Will we both be ok when they ask for residency?

My friend lives with his parents still and all he had was bank statements and some other minor bills that came in his name .. He didn't have a problem with them.. I think you'll be fine don't get all worked up .

I would try to call up DCAS and ask them if they might know .

[SallyBoy48]

Yea Ill call them, I have some old college stuff too. But we should be OK with that stuff

Does anyone know a doctor in staten island, where I can take my physical for the CDL, and also where can I get the form that needs to be filled out?
Thanks

BANK STATEMENTS ARE FINE. WHAT EVER YOU HAVE MUST INCLUDE THE DAY OF THE TEST AND AS CLOSE AS POSSIBLE TO WHEN YOU GET CALLED IN.IF YOU MOVED TO NJ,PA OR CT YOU WILL HAVE A PROBLEM.

Say what yall wanna say about us "Broom Slugs" but while yall junior guys are having a ball pushing a broom on MLP, bouncing around & doing round robins, i'll be sitting pretty in my AY with the heat/ac blasting, staying days with every other weekend off. It ain't like were married to the broom, we could jump off & go to the district & hump trash & get an obscene amount of hours in the book. You got 20 years & one body to do it in. I think i'll be a "broom slug" & ride a broom for 15 & jump to the district for the last five & collect the same pension as the guys who humped trash for 20, only difference is, i'll still be able to walk.

You can't buy off the truck when you first start. When at FBF, they now require you to provide receipts from authorized uniform vendors.
