# Strategies for Operational Inertia

Hello [community](https://www.mindstick.com/blog/300789/common-mental-health-problems-faced-by-the-lgbtq-community), Hilbert Schaefer here.

We all know how to handle the high-priority, "fire-fighting" tickets. But as someone focused on applying**systemic logic** to the support desk, I'm interested in tackling what I calllevel devil—the constant, low-grade **[operational](https://answers.mindstick.com/qa/94144/how-many-days-was-chandrayaan-1-operational) entropy** that quietly drains our [efficiency](https://www.mindstick.com/articles/12879/smartwatch-a-gateway-to-efficiency) and extends our Mean Time To [Resolution](https://www.mindstick.com/articles/12502/looking-for-an-mba-degree-we-guide-you-with-the-perfect-resolution) (MTTR).

This is the inertia of the daily grind: tickets that stall, [documentation](https://answers.mindstick.com/qa/30462/what-is-documentation) habits that slip, or queues that are cluttered with noise.

I'm seeking concrete, non-obvious [strategies](https://www.mindstick.com/articles/85697/most-important-onboarding-strategies-for-office-employees) on how you use GestSup's inherent features to maintain a streamlined, [proactive](https://www.mindstick.com/articles/12260/why-it-is-essential-to-be-proactive-about-your-retirement-financial-planning) system:

**Combating Queue Noise:** Beyond basic priority settings, what are your most effective**filter configurations** that help you instantly focus on the tasks where the ball is truly in your court?

**Meticulous Habits:** What are your best **documentation habits** (internal notes, template use, etc.) that actively reduce the likelihood of a ticket returning or needing extensive re-triage by a colleague?

**Status [Integrity](https://www.mindstick.com/forum/159808/how-do-you-verify-the-integrity-of-a-restored-database):** How do you enforce strict discipline around**status [management](https://www.mindstick.com/articles/167972/why-it-knowledge-and-management-skills-need-to-be-on-the-same-page)** to ensure every single ticket is accurately assigned and visibly moving towards closure?

Any community feedback on breaking this systemic inertia would be greatly valued. Let's make our GestSup workflows as logical and [efficient](https://www.mindstick.com/articles/33637/three-tips-for-an-energy-efficient-home-for-2019) as possible.
