That's a pretty interesting idea. I kinda dig it, especially if change is what's desired.

As far as counting the full-timers or part-timers, one possibility would be to treat the part-timers as "half-people" so to speak, since they could be doing half the labor of a full-timer. Certainly this isn't a perfect solution to that, but it's an idea.
