Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
Weekend option allows nurses to work every weekend and be paid for a full week's work. The other options do not reflect the weekend option.

ANS: B
Everyone has availability at the same time on computers so there is an advantage to the first user. The other advantages do not apply.
