[QUOTE="turdburglar, post: 1051601, member: 41722"] I do not file on anything that is less than five minutes unless it is clear that the supervisor makes sure that he works less than five minutes each time he works, but repeatedly throughout the day. Therefore, I would probably not be filing on a supervisor covering for someone taking a bathroom break. But if the flow is so heavy that a short bathroom break will make or break the sort, there is a problem with staffing. In a situation where a loader is getting flooded with packages and asks for help, I still file, since that is another staffing issue (in my building, we used to have "alt-picks" or "off-picks" that would act as floaters when the flow was not so heavy that the pick could not sort properly. There are never any permanent "alt-picks" anymore). The point is that if some situations are let go, it will seem like no one cares, and management will never staff the operation properly. That is what I am trying to prevent. It may seem like nitpicking on my part, but they do not mind nitpicking us when they are trying to prove a point or push production, misloads, etc. [/QUOTE]
