How to handle (short) bursts of work
Here is a summary of how businesses around me handle short bursts of work:
When i go to the doctor:
- find an empty seat in the waiting room
- observe who’s before me
- wait untill all those people have been seen by the doctor
When i go to the supermarket:
- join the queue at the end
- wait untill al before me have been helped
When i go the the bakery:
- get a number from a ticketing machine at the entrance
- wait untill a seller indicates he’s willing to process my requests
When i go to my car dealer:
hand over car keys
give my mobile phone number
relax in the loung untill they come find me (or send me an sms)
