What gets people upset is unpredictability. A fixed schedule shouldn't cause a problem for anyone (except those who think a fixed schedule slows things down, I suppose).
Agree, but managers can still race ahead (without skipping people) if they get ahead of the 1/2 hour time slots, just like they're doing with the 1 hour time slots. It really just means that people can be skipped if they miss their assigned time slot.
