Just heard the story from someone who works at a local hospital - what a disaster; half the schedules were 1 hour off. And seemingly randomly, schedules after the old time change date were off as well. The ones who made out best were the ones who printed out department schedules before the time change. The reason this is such a big deal is that it's so tricky to schedule meetings among doctors, nurses, and staff; let alone try to guess which hour is which. I don't know when they applied the first DST patch, but it appears that the longer it took to apply the first page, the worse the results. --- BBBS/NT v4.01 Flag-5* Origin: Barktopia BBS Site http://HarborWebs.com:8081 (1:379/45) SEEN-BY: 633/267 @PATH: 379/45 1 633/267 |
