Tom Smyth <tom [at] tomsmyth.ca> is the author of the message below. It was posted by Fred, the Cohousing-L list manager <fholson [at] cohousing.org> after deleting 6 quoted messages in the thread. Please delete excessive quotes. This message was held for my review because the quotes had resulted in it being bigger that the 12k byte maximum for cohousing-L posts. -------------------- FORWARDED MESSAGE FOLLOWS -------------------- At Touchstone we do track work using an hours/quota system. It's a 4 month cycle. Committees submit job descriptions and request hours from the Work Committee, which enters them all into Gather. People choose jobs on job choosing day based on preference. We manage our own maintenance and snow clearing (but hire contractors for big jobs and a plow company for big snows). Some jobs are pre-assigned if they need continuity or special skills. Meals prep & cleanup jobs count as jobs just like the others (and make up the largest amount of work hours in the system in non-pandemic times). Gather also supports tracking jobs without a quota system if you just want to have a list of jobs that people can sign up for. It's easy to find who has signed up for what, and you can get reminders, calendar exports, etc., so that you don't forget about your job. It's also nice to have a central place for job descriptions to live.
