Starting in a couple weeks!

Seems I was well liked enough to get offered a 20hr contract at Dundee East depot doing post+driving. I take it for my first day in person I should just show up in business casual or will I have the chance to get my uniform before that? I have decent walking boots i'd rather wear than company issued shoes though.

My fitness questionnaire thing came out saying "An assessment with a clinician from the OH Service" is recommended and "further medical evidence is required". This is because I mentioned my epilepsy in the form, which is fully medicated and under control and has been for many many years. What's the score here? I take it I need to go attend an appointment somewhere?

Either way, I'm looking forward to joining the team

Nope, they ring you & do an assessment over the phone.
Opinions vary as to what people think of them but I have found them to be helpful.
Goodluck with your career with RM, you must be mad!

Then you will fit in very well, most in RM are mad or have been driven mad!

Dundee East was the worst DO in the UK a few years back. They were bussing in managers and hundreds of OPGs from all over the country for months on end, just to clear the backlog. Hopefully it's a bit better these days.

I remember that, a couple of tossers from our place volunteered to go up, paid travel, hotel, said they did practically nothing when they got there.

I've heard that too, from what I was told and who I was introduced to they gutted the management a couple years ago, the new management have been in place about 18 months or so
