I was booked spare for tomorrow as my job was cancelled, however control rang me yesterday to see if I can come in earlier to help with rebuilding a service. Fortunately I've not got anything booked that would interfere so I'm going in early, I'm sure many that would see the time they are booked...
Oh of course I totally agree, I count myself as quite lucky that the DM'S at my depot are decent guys that seem to treat people fairly which goes a long way, however such a stark difference in wages is often difficult to ignore
Silly comment really, with aslef it's about pay. RMT are trying to secure their job positions and pay.

Turning your phone back on whilst on pnb and seeing WhatsApp messages about how the guys are going out and you've got a second half, then also knowing you are back the next day social life sacrifices

I 100% echo the above do not cancel it, I would however add some companies do the mmi the same day as the assessments have a search on the forum and prep for that. The DMI is a separate day.
Do a search at the top of the forum there is a massive chain about southeastern that should have all the info you need buddy, good luck with the assessment day, best advice I can give is ask if you are unsure of what is needed on the day.
This is so true, I applied in November 2018 for my toc and started training October 2020, however I didn't even have assessments until July 2020 so that's a year and a half from applying to getting the assessment centre.
I count myself very lucky I wasn't put into a talent pool and got onto a...
