i'm on board with cutting.
i would like to see a log/br/instocks tl (however you wanna break it, but 2 of them to share the big teams), pa/ptl (depending on volume), ctl, 1 gstl, 2hltl, 2 sltl and no execs. each tl should be capable of writing their schedules, handling everything, and in turn, big red should give them AMPLE payroll to do it with seeing as how you're saving a few hundred thou in salaries every year. IMO, it wouldn't hurt not to have an etl-hr, you could have a tl for that as well and have a district guru to help them out with sticky situations.
you could cut all the tl. have an etlhr/ge, etlsf, etlrep, etllog, stl. but again, i've never worked for an extended period of time in the largest targets, although i trained in the #2 supertarget many moons ago. volume definitely has to be taken into account. the problem at my store is all the tl except early am are srtl. so even when they're scheduled in a workcenter instead of "inventory" (where we put our lods), they use lod duties as an excuse not to do physical labor.
