How to write it

  • One line per person or room: name, times, then what it is.
  • Add breaks with ", break 11am-11:30am".
  • Set "hours:" and any time nobody is working is flagged.

Or use the form in the maker: no typing rules to learn.

hours: 6am-10pm
Anna 7am-3pm Front, break 11am-11:30am
Ben 12pm-8pm Kitchen
Room A 9am-10:30am Yoga

Questions

What does "Not covered" mean?

If you add your hours (for example "hours: 6am-10pm"), any time inside them with nobody working is shown as a dashed red gap.

Can I show breaks?

Yes. Add ", break 11am-11:30am" after a shift and it shows as a hatched gap inside it.

Does it show what's happening now?

Yes. When the timeline is for today, a red Now line moves across it and whoever is on shift is highlighted.
