    Scotrail Trainee Drivers (Ongoing)

    It's never going to happen. You'd think they would have crunched the numbers before taking on so many drivers though.

    Yeah one of the internal applicants showed part of the test. Lots of tiny green dots moving around in a black circle and you're somehow supposed to count them. It looked very difficult.

    I'm on day 6 of 7 just now. Last week Friday and Saturday were earlies. Backshift Sunday through to Thursday then 5 days off. Honking backshifts too, looking forward to my days off now!

    Best travel mug for work?

    I bought a 1 litre Stanley flask and wee enamel mug. Having the ability to have a hot cup of tea at any time during the shift has been a game changer for me.
