The day I joined LU 12 years ago was a great day. Decent pay and pension and virtually a job for life.

Hi Desi Fratton depot
--- old post above --- --- new post below ---
There seems to be a lot of questions as to what to wear for the medical.... I,m playing it safe with shirt and tie. Dont get to wear it too often so I dont mind and also nobody can say that you were not smart!

Non-commerial guards do not sell tickets and have no access to an Advantix, most time tabling queries can be done with the company issued mobile.
