    Sorry, am I being slow? I got the impression from everyone that they are crap, are they actually handy as my blackberry timer is seriously bad and if the gaptimer is OK i'll ask for one!
    I'm guessing there may have been a hint of sarcasm in Lil_Me's post Vicki!!

    I think you might be right there !

    I got mine sent as a special reward. Apart from the fact that it has GAPBUSTER embossed on the back and looks and feels like a toy, it only records two times.

    If you have any 'problem' with your timings you are knackered. At least with a Nokia mobile (or similar) you can do as many timing points as you like and aggregate your times.

    Last week I had stopped the timings when the MOS passed the tray to me, but he dropped the drink, and the timing would have been incorrect if using the Gap-devise.

    My GAP timer lives in my 1 year olds toy box!! :D
    Was dead pleased when it arrived in the post as my son is *forever* trying to go for my phone, and lost the little toy one we got for him to trick him into thinking he was playing with a real phone.

    But even he's not stupid enough to be fooled into thinking it's a real phone!! :D

    Lol!!!
    Maybe when he's old enough for his first happy meal, I'll sneak it into his box, and he'll think he got stuck with a really crappy toy, so i can send him to the counter to ask the staff to swap it for a different toy, and see what they say!!! :D

  • Hi all,

    Wondered if this had happened to anyone before, and if I am in the wrong:

    I took a pub job on RE, but it had a special notice on there advising to speak to a member of staff before commencing with the assignment, as they had important information about the job. It said in red that I would *NOT* be able to continue without having spoken to one of the team. When you click assignment notes, the message came up again.
    The day before, I emailed the person mentioned in there, and she wrote back thanking me, but not giving me any further detail. I wrote back asking if it would be ok to complete the survey now I had contacted her, even going so far as to send a screen shot and nothing.

    As such, I did not do the visit, as I didn't think there was any point in doing it if it was 'stuck' if you like. I also mentioned this in an email. The next day, I got one of those gentle reminder emails reminding me to submit my report, to which I replied telling the contact I did not do it as she did not get back to me. No response.

    Now the job has been released, and I have been docked two points. So frustrating!
