Re: How to? Getting things done...

On 1197, if you're caught being a "noodle-slurper" (someone who comes for the food only), you're promptly assigned to one of the multiple projects we've always got going on. You might not have a choice which one. (Late-season, it's often our "minibot" giveaways.) That also goes for anybody who can't find work but wants to work; they usually get a choice AND the lead they're working with is charged with making sure they're busy either working or learning or both.

Let's put it this way: We've only got a shop needing organizing, though we can usually find everything, maybe 4-6 different projects going on at once in the main room and another 2-3 in any given other room, and assisting driver practice outside. Sound familiar?
