Hello all,
New here and wanted to say hello. I am proud to say I will be starting to work for the mta metro north railroad as a conductor in a few weeks. I am 25 years old.
I wanted to have a couple opinions on the topic.
Is 25 a good age to start? I heard a while back it was much easier to get on at age 19,20 21 and i see a person here and there starting at 20 21 years old.
I was not raised under a traditional household. Divorced parents, anxiety issues, college and was sick for two+ years undiagnosed thanks to my doctor which really set me back. So not much money saved up really, no debt though and trying to get out of the house here and get my life going.
I am excited to start this railroad career as long as I make it through training, but just wanted to know what the outlook is working as a conductor at 25. I am a little jealous of the guys who start younger
I am new here and new to this so any help is appreciated.
