I started out 52 years ago as a TTA in the Post Office. It was great start to my career. I became a Senior Manager with National Grid and led a billion dollar project in Australia. I am always grateful for that start in work given to me by the GPO. It is remarkable that the same basic concept is being used by BT. It has however been updated in terms of technology and more modern training methods. Well done to everyone involved.
