The Mailroom how to get employee of the month comes down to a clean shift, and a clean shift has two halves: sort the mail correctly and get the mixtures just right. The wall tally of green checkmarks and red X's on the wall tracks the first half for the whole day, and the potion and processing work at the bench is the second.
The Mailroom how to get employee of the month: the two halves
- Sorting accuracy. Every letter that belongs in a capsule rather than in the furnace counts for or against you on the wall tally.
- The mixtures. The measured volume, the weighed organs and the mortar percentages all have to land on what the upper floors ordered.
Neither half works alone. A shift with perfect sorting and sloppy mixtures leaves red X's on the mixtures, and a shift with accurate mixtures and a burnt delivery still shows the mistake on the tally.
What the wall tally measures
The tally is a wall of green checkmarks and red X's that records how accurate you were across the shift. A checkmark is a letter handled correctly, and an X is one you got wrong, whether it was a real letter that went into the furnace or junk that went up in a capsule. Small slip-ups do not go unnoticed, and the tally is the practical way to tell a good shift from a sloppy one while you are still working.
The three checks that decide a letter, and the policy that decides what counts as junk, are in mail sorting rules.
The mixtures half of the score
The other half is the potion and processing work on the bench. Precise mixtures are what earn the shot at employee of the month, and the same accuracy feeds the tally, because a mixture made to the wrong volume or the wrong percentages is a mistake counted like any other. The stations, the readouts and the targets are in potion crafting.
What mistakes cost you
Some mistakes draw a response rather than a mark. Wasting a frog on the wrong floor brings a strongly worded letter from your superiors, and a message like that is a good reminder to check the floor before you send the capsule. The tally cannot tell you that a specific specimen is gone, so it pays to slow down on the deliveries that are hardest to get right.
