I've switched to this but I can't find the date binary. Does anyone
know the full path for date?
$ which date
/bin/date
$ qfile date
sys-apps/coreutils (/bin/date)
Thank you everyone. I think it's working now.

I might be wrong but as I understand it, cron executes your commands in
/bin/sh, not /bin/bash.
/bin/sh is a symlink to bash.

I dont understand. runs as usually means runs under the user
context to me - are you saying bash has an sh compatibility mode?

Yes, when run as sh in POSIX mode (i.e. if it were called as bash
--posix).
