Medical Problem???
Hi guys. Had my medical yesterday and the guy picked up that I had a hearing loss - this is so severe that I forgot to mention it! Seriously it does not cause me any problems and I have been around the world, been to Uni, have always worked etc. The question is he gave me a B score instead of an A - could this minor blip blow my chances???

Years ago, we used to hire people who were A or B, but not C....it's illegal to discriminate for employment purposes on this basis now!
Good luck and keep us posted.
