The shift should not depend on who is on

The shift, step by step

Opening

Every session for the shift, in order, with who is booked and anything you need to know before they walk in. Birthdays. Access requirements. The group that rang to say they will be twenty minutes late.

It updates as bookings change. Nobody is working off a sheet printed at nine in the morning.

Waivers

The link goes out with the confirmation. People sign at home, on their phone, days earlier.

So check-in is a name being ticked off rather than eight people crowding your front desk with a clipboard while their session eats itself. Anyone who did not sign can do it there, but most already have.

Minors and guardians handled properly, kept securely, and cleared out when they are meant to be.

Notes

Notes attached to the session itself. What this group booked, what to mention, what went wrong last time this experience ran.

New staff get what the person who has been there four years knows, without having to ask them.

End of session

At the end of the session, in about fifteen seconds. Did they finish. How long it took. How many actually turned up.

Do that for a year and you know which experiences people complete, which ones are too hard, and what your real no-show rate is. Nobody reconstructs it on Monday from memory.
