management is a slippery slope.

I said I wasn't ever gonna log in to anything work related from home, but here I am.
(for my sins) I am chairing the AVCB in the township where I work (as the boss says "she works for me, she can't say no"). {I am not thrilled by this, really I'm not. I wanna be a minion. I'm a good minion. I don't wanna be in charge.}
I've been texting with the people on the board (everyone's got a cell phone, and in at least one case it's the most reliable/quickest way to contact them), and someone asked "how many ballots have we sent out/gotten back?" Erm. I have no idea, I've just been _doing_ it! So I logged in to the clerk-facing voter database and got those reports. We've sent out over 1100 ballots, and as of 3pm today had received over 600 of them back. We will be getting at least another 300 ballots back between now and Election Day. A good, well-trained AVCB team of 2 can process about 50 ballots an hour on the average. We only have personnel (and *space*) for two teams. So we're doing it over two days.
