Met 40,000 scan milestone last week
For week 6
Project total (hours scanning + quality checking) 221 hours 41450 scans

I've been in and out of the office for the past three weeks with various training and personal time off. The students are fine to keep the workflow at a high level of production.

I also created a detailed letter of successful work performance expectations. I am going over it with all my new students and will use it as we hire future student employees.

Jason successfully completed the scanner upgrade without a hitch. The students haven't said anything about the scanner malfunctioning since the upgrade was complete. All settings were saved and the scans seem to be calibrated.

Last week I trained a new student on the scanner and our workflow.
I'll go over quality assurance next week. I'll have another new student for training next week.

I also heard from a former student who is interested in working for a few hours per week during the project. She can work as a tace employee and can help with quality checking.

One of my other students whom I had to let go, said she would be available to work as a floater if needed. So I'm hoping I've got my bases covered this semester. I just hope the students catch on and want to say on board throughout the project's completion next summer.
