Congrats matey! Getting a job is always a plus point, hope you enjoy working there.
I wanted to work there but the level of retarded knowledge on cars astounds me. You will wipe the floor with them for sure.

It's downright inconsiderate that it is considered appropriate not to let candidates know they have been unsuccessful. They go to the effort of getting to you, at a time of your convenience, get all dressed up, willing to work for you - the employer, and you don't even let them know if they aren't successful.
That's not good style imo, I don't like how that's become accepted as reasonable. I don't give two shits about business resources and wastage, a 14 year old can mail merge preset layout 'you've been unsuccessful' emails.

Joking aside mate, congrats.
I always find halfords pretty handy for tools and if you get a juicy discount that could be quite handy

Well done man... I understand the employee development programme there is pretty good there too (i.e. promotions and working your way up the career ladder internally)
