maybe come time the next hiring session, you should consider assigning Alternates.
in case people step down, you can just default to the alternates. catch my drift? |

Sounds like a good idea, but there are so many ways in which this could fail.
I think a mentor's position should be somewhat similar to an alternative. If the staff is lacking and cannot hire some one right away, there are a few mentors that obviously know what they're doing and would be able to take over for maybe a month or so... until the next official or unofficial hiring. |

Mentors are also capable of doing the job as a "temp" mod. If they're not willing, I'd look for someone else from the community.I think a mentor's position should be somewhat similar to an alternative.

I think this idea will come in handy if someone goes on an extended leave. If the staff is low on numbers, I don't see the point in having alternates or temps. Might as well hire a few more people that will commit. Lucy, it's not a training period per se. It's just so people can fill in positions when it's really needed not when a new group of people are hired and need to learn the ropes. |
