To add to the recent discussion about how many blocks can be cut per hour, the College of Medical Laboratory Technologists of Ontario published Practice Guidelines for Medical Laboratory Technologists Practising in Histology fairly recently, in 2008, which may be of use in this context.  The practice guidelines are "intended to support, not replace, the exercise of professional judgment by medical laboratory technologists practising in histology...and are maintained...in consultation with CMLTO members and stakeholders." 
 
The usual workplace variables are taken into account in the guideline, but at least there are some daily ranges presented which may help Joanne in her quest for a reasonable goal.
