The next time you want to find the requirements analysts in your church (you don't do this quarterly?), try this little trick.

Take the condiments from the church buffet line and put them in front of the hamburger buns.

An organized person will notice the discrepancy and discuss it with the people around them.

A process analyst will actually pick up the condiments and move them back, causing an immediate, though temporary, improvement in the efficiency of the line.

A requirements analyst -- the kind of automation experts that we employ -- will winsomely convince the buffet manager that everyone will benefit from reworking the buffet planning checklist so that this flaw in their queue management is never repeated.
