"When I begin my shift, I read through the previous day's log so I know what happened when I left. I review the schedule so I know which employees are working during my shift and check in with my supervisor. Most days, I follow a particular routine as I walk through the store and will spend more time in busier sections of the store. I position myself so that I can see the entrance and the register.
To stay focused, I keep a mental note of which customers were at the register just before exiting the store."
