City wins state appeal for new taxi system in outer boroughs - NYPOST.com

With this going in his favor is this good news eventually for us waiting and the city?
unrelated, anything budget related you hear on the news is all politics.

The mayor did in fact blame the loss of new medallion money for not negotiating contracts. But rest assured now that he got it he will find a new reason not to pay us. He's a weasel

Wait till you get on the job. If it makes sense they do the opposite.

Wow...been a real lull in any rumors lately! Really starting to feel first class won't be till Sept.Just cant understand why the dept has to be so secretive on when they'll be classes!They have to know something at this point. I know the city budget comes out in July,but union reps must have some kinda commitment from the city at this point. Makes no sense to me. Everyone waiting has to be nervous and kinda put life on hold until an official word comes down! Cant really make plans during the week due to the fact that FBF training may start from as early as July to as late as October. When,and hopefully it does start, do they have 3 different shifts per class? And if so...do they alternate from week to week? Also...if anyone can answer how many are in the DSNY workforce presently? I know theres probably a max and min line that the union adheres to...if so, what are those max/min limits?

The last thing I heard from a buddy that works at the borough is that they are estimating to have to promote 2 to 3 hundred sanmen to supervisor when they sections come back. That's good news.

So there can be multiple classes at fbf at same time? Like a day tour and a night tour? Nypd does that at their academy
