Ice cream and juice counter
For a small ice cream and juice counter on a busy street, where the summer evening crowd forms a cluster at the window and nobody can tell who was first.

Team
-
Owner Owner
Serves at the Ice cream window, sets up the line and the hours, and prints the poster.
-
Counter helper Staff

The day
Hours, the TV and the poster
-
Opening hours
Every day, 2 pm to 11:30 pm.
Add the monsoon days you stay shut as closed days, so customers do not join a line for a counter that is not open.
-
TV display
The token being called and the window to go to.
Hung above the glass freezer, facing the pavement where people stand.
-
QR poster
On the freezer glass and on the lamp post out front, so a family can scan it and wait at the bench across the road.
Tips
-
One line, two windows.
Both windows call from the same line, so the first person to arrive is the first to be served, whichever window is free.
How it works → -
Take a break with a reason.
Pause the Juice window with the reason "Away" and a return time. The team sees "Away · back ~8:45", and waiting customers' estimates allow for it instead of a window that has stopped.
How it works → -
A phone is optional.
The owner adds a customer at the window and hands over a printed slip with a QR on it. Someone without a phone still has a token.
