We freely switch positions on a timeout, both 2-person and 3-person to reduce the number of steps we have to take. Until I read someone mention this here, I had never even heard of it -- and I've worked in 6 different states.

While there actually is a procedure defined in the mechanics manual, it is certainly a minor issue. If I work with a partner who is going to the "wrong" spot, I just fill in the other spot and smile.
