Currently Peace Offerings is staffed by one part-time person
working 20 hours a week. Last year the store was run by two
part-time staff. Since the store has been experiencing financial
difficulties we are not able to afford the staffing levels of the
past. However, the day to day running of the store is time
consuming and is making it difficult for me to focus on promotion
and buying -- the things that are needed if the store is to make
a profit this year. Therefore I propose:

1.The store manager hours be shortened from 20 hours a week to
15. The job would be to coordinate all aspects of running
the store and do all purchasing and promotion.

2.An additional staff person (volunteer coordinator) be hired at
10 hours a week to oversee the volunteer staffing of the
store and see that the daily financial records be kept and
deposits made.

3.I would take on the bookkeeping duties for an additional 2 1/2
hours a week.

This would ad 5 hours a week to the budget of Peace
Offerings -- an estimated $2,000. This would come from an
additional $1500 in income from sales and a reduction of $500 in
office expenses.

I will submit the job descriptions of each of these
positions at the next meeting for approval.
