Central Scotland

I am (usually solely) responsible for taking orders, both on the phone (for delivery and collection) and from customers in the shop for takeaway and entering these orders onto the touch-screen computer system. I must accurately take the customers' phone number and check their address is correct on the computer for delivery orders and so that the customer may collect loyalty points. I must ensure that orders are made correctly to customer specifications.

I must accurately take the customers' phone number and check their address is correct on the computer for delivery orders and so that the customer may collect loyalty points. I must ensure that orders are made correctly to customer specifications. I am responsible for taking correct payment for orders either in cash or by card and ensuring card receipts are given to customers. It is my particular responsibility to cash up notes, coins, credit card payments, receipts received, driver's bonus/wage payments, customer loyalty vouchers and to reconcile any unpaid orders at the end of each night, entering totals correctly onto the computer system and submitting takings to head office in the correct form. I have many other duties, including making up pizza, 'goodie box' and curry boxes from flat pack, filling tubs of sauces and coleslaw, cleaning glass displays, surfaces and mirrors, sweeping floors both during the shift and at the end of night, and mopping the floor before closing time. I also help with other jobs such as filling sauce tubs, filling salad cups, peeling garlic and onions and washing up pans and donner kebab machine components or skewers. Sometimes if I have time I help the chefs with cooking food and packing deliveries in delivery bags. Show less

Heidelberg Area, Germany

In Heidelberg I continued my PhD research into gravitational lensing, in the company of colleagues also working in similar areas. This enabled sharing of advice and problems and gave me much moral support.

As such I was involved in designing anddeveloping new particle accelerators and the scientific instruments that wereused to test and characterise these before their actual installation. Much of this work involved computer simulation, either using specialised software or programs that were written by myself, often in Fortran.I was involved in the early development of the European Spallation Source.I did a considerable amount of work on the study of stripping foil temperatures for proposed future high intensity proton accelerators. I was involved with the Radio Frequency Quadrupole (RFQ)Test Stand project,for which most recent projects were to develop two novel instrumentswhich were installed and operated on the test stand builtto test the new Radio Frequency Quadrupole (RFQ) which wasplanned to be installed as an early part of theISIS accelerator chain. The description of work done for thiswas made into a published paper in Nuclear Instruments and Methodsand also a Conference Paper for the LINAC Conference.I was also part of the ISIS Accelerator Group, whoseresponsibility it was to maintain and improve the on-siteISIS proton accelerator and neutron source and to run it up to full powerafter shut downs for maintenance or repair. This meant takingturns doing occasional weekend or night shifts in the controlroom during run-up periods. Approximately once a year, either inEurope (EPAC), America (PAC) or Asia (APAC), there would bea particle accelerator conference. A significant amount of time wasspent writing conference papers about our latest work or resultsin order to better inform the wider particle accelerator communityof our work and in return learn about the workof others. In addition there would be occasional meetings, eitherinternal or between RAL and Daresbury Laboratory accelerator groups forwhich I gave presentations. Show less

Geneva Area, Switzerland

Worked in the NOMAD group, researching neutrino oscillationswebsite, for e.g. http://public.web.cern.ch/public/en/Research/Research-en.html

When I worked at CERN I was given the project of taking the measurement date of the positions of the NOMAD project's Muon Chamber detectors and calculating how these varied from the positions that they should have been in, i.e. rotation angles in the three planes and also displacements.
