Hello Michel,

I answered your other question already to the best of my abilities.

Do you have data of usage of the club? Just a number of 8000 members is of limited value unless you know how many of those you have at the club at any given time. Another consideration of staffing is the lay-out of the facility and the services provided (eg. child-care, front-desk, member services, life guard, classes offered, personal training .......).

Even if you feel that personal jealousies are the cause of some of your trouble, try to stand above it. It is very unhelpful in the current situation and will only make you feel antagonistic towards the 'other side'. Try to work WITH them rather than AGAINST them.

Good luck.
