Suggested training program

To keep the lab running smoothly we need an "inhouse training program", developed by all of us through this site, and implemeted by the lab manager. What to train in:

1. knowing what maintenance work is expected from each of us within our individual lab area
2. knowing what portion of the materials list we are individually responsible for updating
3. how to use the folders (labels, etc)
4. where the garbage cans go, what goes in them (recycling)
5. the "unknown table", how it works
6. knowing how to use this site and edit it
7. go through a rotation to briefly learn everybody else's methodology / instruments
8. other ideas? add them here...
