The problem here is that these conflicts and preferences are constantly shifting. Two people can be good friends one week and decide they hate each others' guts the next week. And then they can go back to being friends again the week after. The Rosternator 3000 can't keep up with this so you're always going to be generating bad schedules for a certain portion of your people.
This is one of the reasons good retail managers ignore the advice of their time-keeping systems and give peoples' requests preference. The time-keeping system ignores all of the human aspects of the problem to focus on the least-important aspect of keeping a store running--making sure there are warm bodies in it.

- snerbles 8y agoYes. "I thought this high school bullshit was over!" is one of the most depressingly funny phrases I've ever heard eighteen-year-olds repeatedly utter.
- mrguyorama 8y agoUsually being uttered by the same one's CAUSING said problems
- taneq 8y agoYeah, steer clear of anyone who loudly proclaims they "hate drama". It's like when a two-year-old starts saying they're 'not tired'.
- mcguire 8y agoEver been in a university faculty meeting?
- oh_sigh 8y agoConsidering soldiers are usually only a year or few out of high school, the answer is yes.
- irrational 8y agoI'm just imagining the girls from my high school with weapons. Yikes!
- jschwartzi 8y agoBoys get like this too. It's an affliction of the high-school aged.
