I'm booooooored! At my first tracking trailer checks, 3 reels each an hour apart. 15 mins of trailers leaving 45 hanging around. I brought the iPad thinking I'd input the results whilst I waited and typically the website won't quite work on it. Got another hour and a half to go

hey guys - looking for advice. Thinking of buying a tablet PC... well that or a laptop/note book. Was thinking a tablet pc, especially ipad, would allow me to complete reports on the hop and prevent all the late night report writing when i am half asleep.

Has anyone done this and found it useful? anyone use a tablet and found problems accessing any MS reports .... i know my wildfire gets confused by RE?

Thanks

Stryder

its alive, ITSSS ALIVE!

RE back up

Noticed that work is coming in a bi monthly pattern.

Jan - mad
Feb - crap
March - mad
April - crap

May is already a record for me with the amount of work I have booked to date.

Is this the same for all?

Been thinking about this myself. Dont really want to spend a lot on it and i dont want something too heavy to lug around.

Lucky you! I've got hardly anything.

This year has been very quiet in general. It's a bit worrying considering I haven't got another job or any other income.

I've been considering this too. I've opted for a netbook (£250) as I want one with a HD and a cardreader for my videos. I'm then going to get a smartphone and will use that as a mobile hotspot, should I need it.

Hmm, just done 2 different types of Gap jobs today and neither of them asked me for the web express code. I hope this isn't some cunning plan by Gap where they call you up a month later and say that in order to be paid you have to give the code, causing me to spend ages trying to find it again.

There was questions on both that I hadn't seen before though, asking where I normally buy the product I purchased.

I've just done a Gap report and I was wondering about the Web Express code too.....

It seems to be a random thing I did three assignments earlier in the week, two asked for it, one didn't, all the same client.

Miss Q those questions have been there for about two weeks I think, I was surprised when I first saw them as I wasn't expecting them!
