A little Efficiency goes a long way....

I've been at my current job going on 7 years and it still amazes the simple mistakes people make or lack of care that goes into doing their job well.
My department happens to be payroll and we have schedules, deadlines, etc.. and these schedules are sent to those that need them to make sure they follow the rules. But without fail every single paydate our departments gets overwhelmed with calls that many many employees did not get paid. It rarely has to do with a system error or the like, just human input error..you know where they don't bother to look at their designated schedules for the deadlines.
In these cases we, my department, have to clean up the mess and of course its never fast enough for them. Their employees need to get paid...my thought is , they should have thought about that before not taking the time to read the schedule.:P
