Hey thank you all, i will confirm which date I have as soon as my contract arrives and I've given notice
just have to be careful until then. thank you for your kind words
Training schedule comes one week before it starts, so I am anxiously waiting for it already as I may miss my best friend's wedding. Don't have my contract yet and they won't confirm which fleet until day one. Thank you for the parking tips, I did park at Bunnings for the AD but there were signs up warning non-customers against it. I love Bunnings anyway so I may just buy something every day if there isn't a shuttle from the QF parking lot(although I hope there is!)
My suitcase arrived yesterday (I was super keen and I bought one as a birthday gift to myself haha) and now that's my first tangible sign it's happening.
Good luck to everyone who is still waiting, never give up! I'll post more as I get more news or valuable tidbits
thank you all for your valuable support.
