  1. If you can't make it to a shift, email the AHA Staff Mailing list to let them know.
    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.
