My honest opinion it's bothering me alot... read

I think they should choose two events managers / an assistant. Although one should be enough for the events department, while it's in its current state, two minds will be better than one. Although I guess that really depends on who they choose!

(as long as they're both obviously right for the job with a good application)

Thats the same for all departments you know?

That would mean everyone in the department is a manager lolololol

yeah but the events department hasnt had an assistant or joint in quite a while now, almost a year? I know staff numbers are small and probably only require one, but still. Depends!

and lmao @FlyingJesus; - there are quite a few new trialists and more coming i think, hopefully that's good news for the events department!

All the department needs is a strong manager who's going to actually be around and an AGM who'll pay attention to it. He should've been fired (at the latest) after the world cup tourny fiasco but better late than never

Yeah, that's true. But I know there's some people on here with a lot of potential for the department that'd just feel more comfortable with someone to help a little, whether they truly need it or not. This isn't true for everyone and the department could get back together with one, it just depends on who's managing it in my opinion. If someone feels as if they need an assistant for whatever reason, it certainly doesn't mean they aren't good enough for the department.

That's basically what I meant

[Inseriousity.]

Well I know that general management will give an assistant to practically everyone that asks for one so that isn't really a problem.

[lawrawrrr]

I get what you mean about two heads better than one but when someone new comes into a department they often want to put their stamp on it, especially in a department that's plateaued in a very low place for quite a while. That's why I think only hiring one for now is the best thing to do, unless that person WANTS someone to help out and bounce ideas off, although all AGMs can function as that person, especially Sho.

All people that apply for manager are usually offered trials or a position within the department anyway, and if they really care about the department, rather than just the power, they'll usually be likely to take it and work their way up. We're down a manager AND any seniors right now, when for years there's either been 2 managers and a senior or 1 manager and 2 seniors so there's definitely scope for quick promotion.

events have gone downhill since mathew left.
