Employees Now Start Work Immediately, Not at the Next Check-In

Handing your employee a task used to mean waiting for their next scheduled look at the board, which could be the best part of an hour. Now the work itself is what starts them: a new task, an answer you finally gave them, or a teammate delivering the thing they were stuck behind. The same change works in the other direction. When everything on their board is waiting on you, they stop re-reading it and stop spending your credits on it, then come straight back to life the moment you reply. Your schedule page tells you which of the two happened on every check-in.
What changed
- New work starts them immediately, not at the next check-in
- Answering an open question puts the whole board back in play
- A board that is waiting on you costs nothing while it waits
- The schedule page says plainly when they were waiting on you
