Hi iv just been offered a job in my local co op and they say they want me to do training so I can help run the post office. It's just a small rural store. I'm worried about my past iv got a criminal record, everything's spent and from 12 /13 years ago but I have got a caution for theft by finding 2 years ago and an arrest for neglect that was no further actioned a year ago. Is this going to stop me from working as a post office clerk.

You might want to check out this thread about getting started on the boards.
Congratulations on the job offer but I can understand why you're worried. There's an article on TheSite about Finding work with a criminal record which you might find useful.
I'm also going to move this thread into the Work section as you're more likely to receive responses there.
