The girls love it but they always think I'm exaggerating!!
No, seriously, should that make a real difference. Each room only requires 2 "ops managers"- or whatever you wish to call them, to run the place. With the watch supervisors responsible for the day to day running of the watch, much of the present desk tasks eg. A/L farmed out to the ORO (God help us), they will then have more time to devote to the operation. The present WMs seem to have achieved precious little when it comes to resolving staffing issues etc. as they just don't have the authority to do anything themselves. No good having managers if they don't have the mandate to manage.
