VOLUNTEER SCHEDULING: COSPLAY CAFE AT DO

By sakuramiyabi. 10/01/10, 11:44 am

THIS IS NOT THE FINAL SCHEDULES I AM ONLY GATHERING TIMES YOU ARE AVAILABLE

IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO POST ANYTHING THAT DOES NOT RELATE TO THE TIME YOU ARE AVAILABLE TO WORK AT THE CAFE PLEASE DO NOT POST IT HERE. INSTEAD POST IT

IN THIS THREAD FOR ALL UNRELATEDNESS (e.g. expression of excitement, fangirling, attendance as customer, etc.) OR
IN THIS THREAD HERE FOR ANY IDEAS YOU MAY HAVE THAT YOU THINK WOULD HELP RUN THE CAFE BETTER

ALSO IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO RETRACT YOUR VOLUNTEERANCE FOR REASONS UNKNOWN PLEASE PM ME OR POST IT IN ONE OF THE OTHER THREADS STATED ABOVE. THIS THREAD IS EXCLUSIVELY FOR THE TIMES AT WHICH PEOPLE ARE AVAILABLE. THANKS.

IF YOU WANT ME TO CHANGE ANYTHING ON THE SCHEDULE (OR smarmy wrench OR COMPLAIN OR WHATEVER) PLEASE PM ME --> points at small symbol under avatar that says MP

I WOULD REALLY APPRECIATE IT IF PEOPLE WOULD PLEASE NOT POST IN ANY OTHER FORMAT OTHER THAN THE STATED FORMAT BELOW. AS I SAID ABOVE FOR ALL OTHER STATEMENTS PLEASE PM ME OR POST IN A DIFFERENT THREAD LINKED ABOVE. THANK YOU.

THE SCHEDULE WILL BE SUBJECT TO MUCH CHANGE SO IF I PUT YOU DOWN FOR A LOT OF THINGS AT THE BEGINNING DON'T WORRY IT WILL BE LIKELY TO CHANGE IF IT DOESN'T AND YOU DON'T LIKE IT PLEASE DO PM ME

I now have an approximate schedule of things (i.e. time and start) I starting to put together a schedule. Please note unless you have A VERY GOOD EXCUSE if you say you\'re going to start at a stated time and do not change it before DO and you don\'t show up (without notice) I will be very annoyed and most likely dress you down with my tongue (wants this to run like clockwork which is not easy >>) so the one thing I would like to keep control of is that we have people who will show up on time (5 min grace given without notice). I will also be assigning emergency staff incase we get busier than we expect, people don\'t show etc.

Shifts will be half-hourly though I think it is likely many of you will be working double/triple/quadruple shifts (if necessary) but they dont have to be continuous though.

There will be a max of 5 - 6 staff on the floor at any time, with 2 staff being back-up.

For all volunteers please fill in the times you are available for in the format stated below (this includes people who haven\'t volunteered before in other threads as well)
