Cannot use a '>' with a left hand side of type 'float' and a right hand side of type 'Object'?

So I'm fiddling around with a project and I need a delay between when the player clicks on an object to pick it up, and clicking again to set it back down. I looked it up using a delay and found this bit of code

     var nextUse;
     var delay = 1;
     
     function Start (){
     nextUse = Time.time + delay;
     }
 
 
     function Update(){
     
     if(Time.time > nextUse){
    nextUse = Time.time + delay;
     ...do stuff...
     }
     }
 

I tried using this and sorta got it to work once but only for the first click, before I noticed I hadn't added the nextUse = Time.time + delay; after if statement. However it started giving me the "Cannot use a '>' with a left hand side of type 'float' and a right hand side of type 'Object' " error. I tried getting rid of the bit I added but the problem persists. Here's my actual code if it'll help.

 #pragma strict
 
 
 //==========================================================================================================================//
 
 var mstrCtrl : GameObject;
 var selected : GameObject;  //should set to whatever game object gets clicked on and move it
 var selectedOn : boolean;
 //var ConnectorControl = GetComponent(Connector_Controller);
 var nextUse;
 var delay = 1; //seconds delay
 
 //=========================================================================================================================//
 
 
 function Start () {
 nextUse = Time.time + delay;
 mstrCtrl = this.gameObject;
 DontDestroyOnLoad (mstrCtrl);
 selectedOn = false;
 selected = null;
 
 }
 
 function Update () { 
     var V3T = Vector3(Input.mousePosition.x, Input.mousePosition.y, 10); 
     V3T = Camera.main.ScreenToWorldPoint(V3T);
 
     if(selectedOn == false){
         
         if (Time.time > nextUse){
             if(Input.GetMouseButtonDown(0)){
                 var hit : RaycastHit; 
                 var ray : Ray = Camera.main.ScreenPointToRay(Input.mousePosition);
                 if(Physics.Raycast(ray, hit)){    
                     if(hit.collider/*.tag == "Atom"*/){
                         selected = hit.collider.gameObject;
                         selectedOn = true;
                         Debug.Log(GameObject);
                     }
                 }
             }
         }
     }
     if(selectedOn == true){
         selected.transform.position = V3T;
 
             if(Time.time > nextUse){
             nextUse = Time.time + delay;
             if(Input.GetMouseButtonDown(0)){
                 selected = null;
                 selectedOn = false;
             }
         }
     }
