Hi All,
I have been offered a job with Southeastern as an OBM, subject to passing the medical and drugs/alcohol screening (which is next week, eeeekkkk!)
Drugs/alcohol are not an issue, never done drugs and not a big drinker, but the medical is worrying me. I'm a big guy, BMI is around 35, but I have never had any medical problems. I am currently a retail manager on shift work, and spend 9 hours a day/40 hours plus a week on my feet, lifting and lugging stock/cages of stock, up and down stairs, standing behind the till, moving around working stock etc, and I have never had a day off sick, nor have I ever had any issues completing what is a physically demanding job and constantly all go. I have no restriction in movement and no medical issues either, but I'm worried my stats will exclude me.
Can anyone offer any advice or insight in to the medical and how they decide?
Thanks!
