The lunch lady, at halftime, starts the clock & leaves the table for 9 minutes & 30 seconds most of the time I've noticed so when I was shot clock I had to sound the 1 minute warning. Same thing can be said for pre-games, she'd set the clock, start it and wouldn't return to the table until right before the minute warning or about 15-30 seconds after. The other thing that neither has done is to double check the books at halftime for discrepancies.

This crap drives me nuts. I meet with the captains at 12:00 and go right to the table after the captain's meeting (about 11:30, if I can help it). How hard is it for the scorer and timer to actually be there then?
How am I supposed to have my meeting with the timer if she's gone from 20 minutes until there's less than a minute left? Then, after no meeting, I don't get the proper horns (including the second horn I always ask for on timeouts and the 5 second horn on injuries/DQs) and I feel like we're not on the same page the entire game.
And around here the timer gets paid, so part of getting paid, IMO, is being there when I want to have my meeting.
