umm, the second half of the shift includes the last 30 minutes, so its impossible for it to be smaller. fail?
WHOA!
Good catch WIN.
No. The second half of the shift NEVER includes the smallest logical denominator, defined as the period of time that the person relieving you might arrive in, or your boss might decide to close early.
In this case 30 minutes. Unfortunately for me its only 15.
Both of you need to get a life. It’s just a funny graph some guy made on his lunch hour, why do you have to spread troll all over it? Yes, so the shift should or should not include those last 30 minutes. But if you actually care to make a comment about that, ruining the joke, then you are seriously in lack of something to do. I bet you’re one of the annoying customers.
if he made it during lunch hour, how does he know how many annoying customers there will be in the future??
true. technical difficulties on the graph, maybe. but it’s funny because it’s so true….
trubl – why do you have to be a lol killer? you knew what was trying to be conveyed, no?
jaycee – how very, very true, sir/madame!
I like the graph too. But one has to remember the purpose of a graph is to acurately convey an idea in a visual manner. This is not accurate.
I think the other issue is… we all submit graphs and they never seem to get on. The ones that do get on are often lame, unfunny and in this case…not tight. A lot of us want to know how ours get denied when these others don’t. It seems we’re all geeks and geeks take this kind of stuff quite serious.
I, too, would like to see accurate, more humorous graphs. I submitted a lame graph and it did not get on so not all the lame ones get on. I do see your point, however.
Good point.
I apologize!
Hope your graph makes it on sometime. :]
first poster is right. it can’t both be funny and wrong. and since it’s wrong that overshadows the LOLness. TRY AGAIN!
I concur. A simple fix would be to turn it into a continuous line graph with a big spike at the end.
Think he/she/it could have solve the graphical problem by using times at the bottom of the graph…
8:00am – 12:00pm
1:00pm – 3:30pm
3:30pm – 4:00pm
Would have solved it and keep it funny
Not clear–are there more clients who seem to be annoying you, or are you annoying the clients?
LOL
both of them.
Couldn’t agree more. I’m alone the whole afternoon, and suddenly at 4:45 there’s some twerp who wants a split-shot half-caff and a bagel with cream cheese toasted for EXACTLY two minutes and “Oh, would you put the cream cheese on for me? Sorry, could I have some more cream cheese? And this latte tastes funny.”
Really if you look at ‘customers’ as ‘customers per hour’ it makes sense.
it is a rule that this graph truly applies.
For me, it almost always happens that the first customer I get on Saturday morning (my first day of the week) is going to just rant and rave ’til the cows come home. Then again, it may be because I drink very heavily Friday night anticipating the work week and I’m still dry heaving into the waste bin.
I work at Best Buy and this is 100% true. It’s especially annoying when you get those customers who aren’t there to buy anything but would prefer to play Rock Band or Madden until half past close.
Double this if the next day is a weekend, and redouble this if you’re going on vacation.
If you’re going on vacation the best strategy is to hide under your desk for the last half-day, at least.
Too true. I work in the IT dept for a major bank. The majority of calls I get come in between 2pm-4:30pm. The most annoying are usually on a Friday, they’ve had the problem all week, never called anyone, and want it fixed NOW. The good news is that I set the priority of said calls, and the late Friday ones get pushed to Monday, unless the impact is too great.
In the process of locking the doors, while customers saying they’ll only be a minute: 18
A stacked bar graph would have been better, with “last five minutes” accounting for most of the second half of shift.
The last 30 minutes are never part of your shift, the last 30 minutes are where you stay open after the store has closed because customers refuse to leave and let you tidy and go home.
Having worked in a dollar store for several months, i would have to disagree slightly with this chart. We always seemed to get the annoying customers just before breaktime.
