Nazza Wire opens the assignment board and the outgoing crew’s condition notes at the furnace board at Blackslag Row. Before anyone changes a mark, the crew checks the outgoing shift sometimes leaves after the incoming crew takes the board. The cinder winter period sets the pace of the work.
The page holds 23 handoffs with a signed condition note before the next bell. Nazza Wire reads the preceding count, 23, before the next line is entered. A number without a date would not tell the next crew what changed.
Supervisors count a completed handoff when the board is signed. Workers want the condition note to travel with it. Here the difference is visible between the posted rule and the route, service or shift just beyond the door.
The clerk closes this docket and assigns the next window a fresh scope. The board closed this docket after it approved a paid-time trial with a closeout date. The next window starts with a fresh record.
The shift closes with the source page attached to the board. The next file uses a new date and scope.
