    I dare you :D

    I've put similar (though not as [STRIKE]ridiculous[/STRIKE] justified) comments in the past on my RE reports, it gave me a laugh (and hopefully the proofreader too)
  • They phoned me with a query on one of these jobs to ask if the person was wearing glasses or not. She wasn't which was why I didn't mention it, but the RE person told me that I should have and deducted 2 points. :confused: I'd got her name (obscure), gender, her height, and said that she had long blonde curly hair tied back but seemingly this wasn't enough to identify her, I should also have put "and she wasn't wearing glasses". :rolleyes:
    Thanks for the ABAi fuel alert, Monkeyboy, but they seem to be all "up North". Nothing south of Watford Gap. I'm gutted. Was looking forward to my coffees!!!! ;)

    Actually yes you should:rolleyes:

    There are time when it's wise to put observations of what wasn't there\didn't happen.

    Facial features like "No glasses" or "Clean shaven" "No earings" "No watch\rings" are relevant.

    I guess us who live "up (up) north (north)" need to wait a bit longer too, unless the coffee is just too rich for those north of Bolton ;)
    Couldn't think of anything witty to say so just keeping the space until I can :(

    I agree with those you mention because they pertain to uniform or company standards, but I don't think glasses come under such policies - they're just a feature to identify someone. :confused:
  • oh no!

    I just accepted one of those Meteor electrical store jobs on RE for Wednesday..

    Thought that it was good.. would go after I finish work. But when I confirmed the day it said it needed to be done between 10 & 5!!

    i dont finishe work till 5.30 so am going to have to release it, you'd think they'd make the time clear before you accept it

    Grr

    The times should come up before you accept the assignment. Just click where it says Time Restrictions. HTH.
