Thank you, I work in a ticket office, and most of my colleagues and I would be happy to start it on another day! To the OP: if you take both your railcards and your railcard receipt to a manned station (preferably the one where you bought the railcard), you should be able to fill in the...

I’m ready to learn ALL the acronyms... o_O Yeah, I like to plan ahead, so trying to figure out which trains I’m catching there and back; stuff like that. Oooh, what’s this guidebook? What do you do at the moment? Are you based at Reading currently?

Haha, that’s ok :) I did wonder if it would be at the depot in Bristol, or whether there was a training centre there (do you know how easy it is to get from the station to the depot?) Ahh, I am office based (ticket office), so PTS wouldn’t have meant anything to me :lol:

Too many acronyms o_O What do they mean? SPM & PTS?

I’m internal too, so no induction or GEMs for me either. Any idea on whether we’ll start that day and do something else? And yeah, I know all about no bank holidays :lol::lol:

It was I was told that the first few days were corporate induction followed by GEMs. Also, 27th is a bank holiday, so I’m not sure if the course actually is going to start that day I’ll see you then then. Where are you currently based, and doing what?

No, I didn’t get told where in the pool I was. I received a phone call just over a week ago to let me know about the offer :D

Hiya, I didn’t get an email to say you’d replied. I had an offer of a medical (July), and a start date (August) provided that all goes well. I did get told that it would be a combo of people from the East and West Regions, and will mostly take place in the West (Bristol, I believe!) How about...

I'm currently ticket office 8-) Ahhh, hopefully there are enough people to teach us sooooooooon! I know of a guy who has started training last week, but he's been waiting a while. I think there are only three on his course, so why they couldn't have postponed his training and let more people...

I am internal (are you?), and I passed my managers' interview mid-February. I received the same email in March, about waiting for all the internal candidates to finish their assessments, but I have heard that they are already doing the MMI for Oxford and Paddington, so not sure who is left for...

Thanks :) Yeah, I'm very happy! Ah, cool! Where are you at the moment? I'm already with GWR, but a totally different department :D

Ah, ok! Long old time to have to wait. I've just got through the process :D Maybe I'll see you around. Do you work for GWR already?

July? Wow, which depot did you apply for?

Anybody heard anything on this since?
