What does this suggestion change/add/remove:
This suggestion would have the team change the max slots in VJobs to 3 per each Assistant job on the servers.

Has something similar been suggested before? If so, why is your suggestion different?:
I'm pretty confident this has been suggested before, but context has changed and thus that's why I'd like to try making the suggestion again.

Possible Positives of the suggestion (At least 2):
Should eliminate 99% of all cases where Assistants are queuing just for a chance to get on their role
Makes it even easier for O5 to delegate tasks as there are more people available to work with
QoL as it reduces complaints on the subject substantially and gives people more access to the limited slot.


Possible Negatives of the suggestion:
Too easy to be on the role, according to some
Removes the 2:1 ratio of O5 to Assistant on the Server


Based on the Positives & Negatives, why should this suggestion be accepted:
Gonna be honest, with how the servers have developed, I think this is just common sense. As Site Command continues to move in a direction of focusing on overarching RP Leadership, which in turn means that OSAs also need to be available so that menial task delegation can be done in a more efficient way, having more potential slots is nothing but a boon for both branches.

The 2:1 ratio actually is irrelevant imo too - it's nothing to do with how many O5 or Ethics Members each Assistant can help, it's the volume of tasks. Issues on the Site tend to flare up all at once, and sometimes two Assistants isn't enough, and bottlenecking occurs. Having more Assistants eases the likeliness of that bottleneck, which DRASTICALLY eases some very fixable pressure on SC and lets them do their job better and spend their time on the Server more efficiently.

This is a small change but a massive, MASSIVE QoL in my opinion and I'd be greatly appreciative of any approval. The context that changed it is to do with how many Assistants I see that are on who play the slot for quite some time. Many Assistants are beginning to actively struggle to find room to flag on to the role and I want that to stop and not be a worry for them.

To be transparent, I think three slots would be nice to both the Council and the Committee. Then again, I always thought two would be good enough due to the council's ratio as an example: 4 Council Members, Two Assistant's, One can assist two council members etc.

That's my mind talking silly however. Though you could always think of having four, but that'd kill the whole 'personal assistant' thing in regards to a factotum as an example.
