Some of my staff members thought it might be nice to have a 4-day Memorial Day weekend break. The schedule was blocked off for the Friday before Memorial Day and no one was put in the schedule.

The ony problem was that we have a hygienist who only works on Fridays, and she was never in on the decision and she planned to work.  Since I still had to come in that Friday for other reasons, I sent an eMail “Blast” out to all the private patients who are due for recall and cleaning and offered an incentive (waived the exam fee) if they would come in to fill the open Hygiene slots.  Within 5 minutes one patient booked and by 3 hours, the day was filled.
