Each demonstrator will ideally work a four-hour (morning or afternoon) and a two-hour (lunch) shift. This is a total of only six hours. There are, of course, other duties to be fulfilled in the market. Shift times for storekeepers and cashiers are a little longer than those of demonstrators. Storekeeper shifts overlap to allow for incoming volunteers to get up to speed. Cashier shifts are extended to accommodate the count-out procedure at the end of each shift. <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>If you would like to volunteer for this service, please let me know by May 5<sup>th</sup>.
