    Rescheduling Gap jobs used to be simple. Select the new date - hey presto, done.

    I rescheduled a couple last week and they were "pending" until the next morning, and I'm now trying to reschedule a pizza delivery from next Tuesday to Wednesday and even though the date is available it won't let me do it!

    Anyone else having problems with this at the moment?

    the gyp chicken questionnaire is well harsh- won't let you give more than a 7. not very motivating to staff! :(

    I was doing a shopping (not MSing) just before Christmas. Got to the checkouts and wandered along looking for a till with less than 4 people queueing. Up pops an assistant. 'I'm just opening this till sir'. Great I think. The assistant talks away. 'Did you get everything you were looking for?' ' Is there anything else you need?' And so on, with all the right questions. Finishing with 'Thanks for shopping with us today, have a lovely day'. I'm getting more and more paranoid as this goes on. I'm from a wee town. People get to know things. I've only been MSing for a couple of months. Has word got round already? Is my photo up in the staff room? Is my MSing career over? What do I do?

    Then I think, great. My own personal assistant following me round the shop to help me when I need it and open my own personal checkout for me. I can live with that.

    Of course, it didnt happen the next time, I am just paranoid.

    Af'noon all

    There's a few chemist jobs near me to apply for but the thing putting me off is the exit interview...some of them are pretty obsure places - what if no-one fills a prescription?? Can anyone that's done them before tell me whether there's a minimum wait?? ie wait 20 minutes and if no-one fills a presciption you can go - or are you hanging about indefinitely?

    Thanks

    A lot of the punters coming out of chemists these days are in for their Methadone.

    I wouldn't be happy to be stopped by a total stranger with no ID asking me about my precriptions or whatever coming out of a chemist. I would be tempted to say you tried but people just looked at you and walked away without answering.
