Well we've got it better arranged than that, because we are the receptionists as well as security, which makes sense - fewer lines of communication to get confused by - and we issue and control all the temp passes, and can do so any tmie we think suitable. Also, we don't have weekend staff, we all do a combination of weekdays, nights and weekends, so we tend to get to know everyone eventually.
We do however tell one little white lie to make things run more smoothly. If a temp pass isn't returned within 24 hours it gets cancelled. We tell everyone IT do that, but it's actually us who have complete control over the card system. It has prevented lots of people trying to make us compromise then get arsy when we don't.
