Question: Would it be okay to send a text to my boss confirming a shift with her? Posted: 28 Oct 2015 08:18 PM PDT I work part time in a retail store and need to confirm with my boss if she wants me to come in for a shift tomorrow. Is it okay to send a short, polite text to confirm? Or could she be annoyed? I don't want to call during the day as she's extremely busy and it interrupts. Whereas with a text, she can just get it when she checks her phone. She doesn't text her employees much but we have a Facebook group where she communicates with us so it's not like she's against social media or modern communication methods. |

Posted: 28 Oct 2015 06:45 AM PDT The object you are trying to obligate, namely the vehicles and their passengers, are unpredictable. So there really isn't a steadfast rule for light management. Usually what they do is for a period of time monitor traffic over certain areas. The problem is that traffic is not usually consistent. To control traffic flow you might, for example, get an average and just run with that. Where I live they control the light times by time of day and in some intersections use a detector for a stopped vehicle. How they do this differs from place to place. The only way you could properly control lights for traffic to be the most efficient is if everybody drove the same speed at the same time of day, but you run into other problems, like people stop and accelerate different not only at the light but at stop and yield signs. So if you get just a few people that linger or roll through traffic signals it screws the whole design up anyway. You'll see perfection when all transportation in whatever form is automatic. Key word, "all". |
