    I wore a suit . Watched the programed on rate called recruits they were all casual

    Which reflects poorly on them.

    I'd very much agree with Member16, you're about to embark on a 17 week long job interview. Make a good first impression.

    Yes on the polish (Kiwi)... No on brushes, you'll get issued with what you need. Used to be you got hair, shaving, clothes, boots polishing and shining x 2, plus others I can't recall the purpose of. Write up the list here so's tick-offs can be made for you. One tip, if you're getting yellow dusters for cleaning, take worn ones from home as new ones get leave fluff everywhere. esp on clothes.
