Re: Petrol Stations
Found this.
Just one of many, many companies offering the training.
Oh and it takes 2 days not a 1/2 like I thought (the 1/2 day one must be a refresher).

Re: Petrol Stations
rb its well worth doing petrol stations-for the big petrol stations, be careful of the franchise ones-u can normally tell them as there is prayer mats in the toilets and half the pumps dont work.
the course will pay for itself when u pull some of the fridges out,all them pound coins! its worth getting kicked whilst changing 10 watt multifit fans

Re: Petrol Stations
Spend more time doing the paperwork at these places than doing the job.
To the optimist, the glass is half full. To the pessimist, the glass is half empty.
