That would be a ridiculous schedule.

Doing 2 to 3 hearings per workday ? Sounds reasonable, based on the length of mine.

Writing up those 2 to 3 findings per day ? Can easily fit that in if they are approvals, but if a denial requires a lengthy explanation, that could mean trouble/overtime.

Many days, it seems like an ALJ should be able to manage 2 to 3 hearings plus their write ups in an 8 hour day. The problem is.....

Reading the entire record to evaluate if the right decision was made the first time or not. When would it be possible for them to do the thorough review of the record that we would all like to think that we are entitled to ? It does't seem like any time is being alotted for that.
