Introducing a manual task that requires action into that mix is only asking for trouble at some point.


I know some tote companies can link the two events to post simultaneously. That should be a requirement for hosting these extra pools. If that is done then the main problem is removed.
This is quite an intelligent response. It really has to be extremely difficult to keep one's attention sharp through this process.

Of course, from the public's POV, it is seen as "YOU'VE ONLY GOT THIS ONE JOB!"

Of course, the customer has the right to expect that near-perfect integrity should be a high concern. Currently, it is not high enough.
