1. there should be some people down there in
HCO and they're in
Department 1 and they're called expediters. They're farmed out gradually to get backlogs off the
line. You keep a very careful record of them, they
don't go on the
org board and they
don't become members of divisions except
HCO Dept 1 Expediter. They just
handle overloads. Now they're gradually becoming familiar with the
ship and they're getting through
AB Checksheets. Gradually these
guys form a
personnel pool.
(6912C13 SO) 2. people assigned to
Dept 1 as expediters to
handle work backlogs in other divisions. They may not be
given posts. They are only used to
clear backlogs of
work seen in
comm and
area inspections. When
given a
post it is by
Captain's approval or
transfer. They are no longer expediters.
