It's just never the same people who don't show up! (If people don't show up a couple of times, I discharge them quick.) It's so hit or miss. This week it seems like everyone is sick. Next week everyone will have holiday-itis. It's just a mess.
The problem with double booking would be if everyone came. Then it would be like a doctor's office. And I /hate/ when it happens at the doctor's office!!
Let's face it, everybody coming just isn't going to happen!
Well if your job didn't care so much about how many people actually keep their appointments (as if that's in your power) then I'd say don't double book. But because you're under so much pressure, I still say stagger the double booking.
