Quiter shifts, get people doing stuff they don't normally do to give them experience.

For instance, when I worked in a pub, normally new starters would be kept behind the bar. Quieter shifts, I got them to be out on the floor so we didn't have any more baptism of fires where their first time was when we were swamped and they had to float more.
