I'd be very careful doing this and presenting this to your management. Don't say "remaining 3 members will take on 1/3 of departed worker" because it means you and other workers' workload wasn't full to begin with. Instead say we will divide his work but these are the items that we are NOT going to be able to do - each come up with items that will be put on hold.

Decide what work you can put off, push off, automate and redelegate tasks based on priority. Offer to be acting supervisor no pay increase. Do a deck for him with options.

I have staff who come to me on everything it is exhausting. I wish one would step up and I would push for them to be manager.

Also did you contact HR to post job. Did you get that ball rolling or did you check with your boss or HR?

The job market is a bit more employe friendly, and to be honest I had a guy stamp his little feet once and demand a raise or he walk out. I got his raise. I regreted it. Why a few months later he saw a job another area slghtly more pay in company and stamped his feet again I am going to quit unless you let nme transfer. At this point I was sick of him so said go for it. Guess what a few months later he stamped his feet again for more money and guess what we said no and he quit and found another job. Since then I am like your boss. Go elsewhere.

So step up. Your boss is strong.

OP, your boss is here.

That's J1, J2 guy, always wanting workers to do more for less.

I just six weeks of staff work in 30 minutes using AI, Prompts and a query or two. Dirty secret they do nothing. They are like Groomsmen at a wedding, they just stand there and do nothing.

I'd love to have you as my staff.
