Third Day on the Grind

What should I know / have done by the end of today?

 Review First & Second Day Guides

• First Day on the Grind
• Second Day on the Grind

 Watching the shop on your own

• It's not expected that you know how every little thing works down here. That's okay!
• It is expected that you will give an honest try to help someone make and create.
• It is expected that you ask for help! Doing so not only helps you learn, but it also helps establish with newcomers that 'asking for help' is acceptable!

 Don't get bored!

Feel free to add to this!

1. Help someone with their project
2. Document proper use of a tool/tips on our wiki
3. Take a picture of someone's project, post it on our AHA Facebook Page or get access and make a post on AHA's website!
4. Make something beautiful! Check out the Made Something Beautiful page for some suggestions.

 Small helpful / random nuggets

Feel free to add to this!

1. If you can't make it to a shift, email the AHA Staff Mailing list to ask for a replacement/shift swap: )
   1. If no one can work the shift, email the AHA Members and AHA Public list and let them know we will be closed during that time.
   2. A week heads up is great. Less than that and someone will be sad, but that's okay.
2. Keep your eyes and ears open, this can help a number of things:
   1. Some times people forget to clean up, remind them before they try to leave you/someone else with the mess!
   2. Some times people forget to wear safety glasses, or clamp things down on the drill press. Save their eyes and fingers!*
      1. * Saving eyes and fingers is a good idea regardless of their attachment to their physical body.

To be categorized

• When arriving for your shift, turn on the light switch at the top of the stairs, and switch on the 'open' sign
• Make sure to check whether the door is locked or not - then unlock it!
• difference between members and non members/how to lock up
• its okay to be on your computer, but MUST be aware of people coming in and out and greeting them asap.
• what happens when internet goes out
• what do I do if I don't know the answer and no one else is around
• list of general contacts for resources (josh-management and rental. Tyler-3d printer. Dana-kids camps etc etc)
• knowing where equipment is and house supplies. (Paper towels, cleaning supplies etc)
• contact information is a plus:
• who has 24/7 access so you do not have to worry about kicking people out
• who is in charge of upcoming classes, say for instance a member/nonmember is wanting to take intro to soldering, and they have a few questions but you do not know, who they should contact that's teaching that class (if that makes sense)
