Appointment scheduling looks like a calendar problem and is not. Each page below takes one real day in one kind of business and draws it.
Overview
Appointment scheduling looks like a calendar problem and is not. The difficulty is underneath: services that take different amounts of time, staff who cannot all do everything, equipment shared between them, and the dead time in the middle of a long appointment that a well-run business sells to somebody else.
Each page here takes one real day in one kind of business and draws it, then hands you a working version to try to break.
