I have never done this and would not be happy if I had to.  Maybe no one
else has this problem, although I doubt it, but it is rare to have a day
go
by that we don't have to check something in current issues to,
hopefully,
figure out what is going on.  And some days, it seems like everything
that
you touch is a problem.  I *much* prefer accuracy to speed.  There is,
of
course, such a thing as unreasonably slow.  If the checking-in of a
certain
number of magazines regularly takes twice as long as it does everybody
else, you may have a problem.  But, coming up with an actual check-in
rate
seems a little unreasonable to me.
