You should not wear anything issued to you outside of work unless you would like to be "expected to help" NYS DOH Article 30 does not apply to us because we work for a municipality... Don't risk jamming yourself up because your proud, because that pride can immediately get shut down when you lose your job.
Do you know if we can wear anything that says fdny after graduating?

You can wear things after graduating, but remember what I said... Someone sees you in that uniform, job shirt, jacket, etc.... There is no article 30 to cover your skin. That mainly applies to the privates

Hey guys does anyone know the pay rate while being in the academy (Night or Day)? Thank you in advance.

Day is base pay 16.31/hr

Night is a LITTLE bit more due to night diff.... Not a noticeable dent in the paychecks.

Okay that's cool. What about the hours? I would like to keep my day job till the end of the academy (9-5). Is this possible?
It's not a smart idea to hold your day job. I tried to do the same thing working in retail as a supervisor at Spencer's Gifts. It really affects you. The stress of one job and the stress you'll encounter in your first month in the academy. It is a lot.

As far as I have heard, next academy will begin on Feb. 14 (Valentines Day). On average, you will get 7-14 days notice of the academy so inform you employer now that it will be short notice.

Quick question about the academy and fdny ems... is there a contract of employment that is signed stating a minimal time of employment? For example if I receive another job offer while atttending the academy.

I filed for FDNY EMT in July and I still didn't get my list number yet. I know there was a filing period in September as well, do you think they're going to merge the two filings together to make one list? If that's the case I can be waiting forever.
