you are a new machine operator and you noticed that your experienced coworker is making handwritten notes about your machines during the day. they are logging things such as errors they observe and the number of gum packs the machine is making. this is something they are doing in addition to the required quality checks and record keeping on the computer and sheets. making additional hand notes was no part of your training and you doubt it is required.

 

Which statements would be most effective and least effective:

 

A) mirror your coworkers behaviors and start taking addition al hand notes about your machine

 

B) don't make any notes because its most likely not important if it was not covered in the training.

 

C) start making additional handwritten notes only if your supervisor recommends that you do so

D) Ask your coworker why and how they take handwritten notes to understand if it helps
