The Carrier argues that it did blank: the job; that t^e duties
of op=en inrc, sorting a--id processing are performed variously throughout the
s:ys term and the assig=.-Ien t i this case to a ig er paid em nlcy ee (as is
the Stenographer ::e. 1) does not 'rioiate tile blan~'ng cf the job.

:·ie think -ot. In defining the roles for -..,. Stenographer No. _ and Assistant File Clerk-Record filer, there i·Tas obvi'ousl'y reason to draw t_=a lines of demarcation between functions attendent to those nOSi.tionS. Nothin° in the Stenograp:,er _`:0. 1 duties C8__ be construed. to Cover t.^_e mail processina functions; on the other hand, the Ass-istaat ·ile ClerkRecord C1erh's duties in reserving the functions of a position to that position. We find merit to tie Orcanization's claim and Rule 11 ma=kes clear that such duties 1Tould cover the entire eight-hour period. Thus, the Clai..ant's request for eight hollrs'pa'J is ordered.
