Re: New Job Kinda
 

Well i did the medial today .I think it went ok i have great hearing good lungs blood pressure is spot on but my sight was not as good at it should have been :( .But the doc said its just really to tell they u arent blind . Oh and iam 2 kg over weight ffs :( 6 foot tall and i weighed 92.2 kg . So its just a waiting game .

Re: New Job Kinda
 

putting those figures into a Body Mass Index (BMI) calculator gives about 27.5 - anything over 25 is considered overweight, so you are slightly over - however it does say it is not very accurate for 'athletic' people due to their higher muscle mass.

- the good result is the blood pressure - mine is high, even though I am bordering on underweight for my height.

I think you will be ok :tu:

Re: New Job Kinda
 

As long as you're not colour blind and 2 kilos overweight is nothing thats about 4.4 lbs.

As homealone said, there shouldn't be a problem. :)

chuffed to bits for you my mate , take all the positives out of this thread and bin all the negative ones :tu: :D :D :D

Re: New Job Kinda
 

Good stuff matey :tu:

Just try and make the best of it - as has been said, if you don't enjoy it, you've had the training and use that to your advantage if you're looking for something else.

Hope it works out alright :)

Re: New Job Kinda
 

Check the group intranet it gives recommended levels at various parts of the slope :)

If you can do as much work as possible in the cabinet and leave as little trailling on the end of a modem / set top box (reading about engineers stuffing 13dB of attenuation on the back of cable modems :( ) you is good :) Though get em in the right tap in the first place and there's a good part of it done!

Re: New Job Kinda
 

IIRC mate, the signal levels should be +4db/+4db/-4db. But its been a while since I had to worry about that, thank feck. ;)

So which supervisor are you training under? If its Alex tell him Brian says ''hello you short arsed gimp''. :angel:
