I was on a few YTS shebangs in the late 80s/early 90s.
One was with the supermarket 'Fine Fare', if I remember rightly.
At the time, it was pitched as top notch training.
It took me less than half a hour to become a whizz at operating the checkout, but the training period was two years!
Think I got the princely sum of £29 pw for it, rising to a big fat £35 once I reached 17.
Lots of unsavoury stuff going on here.
