How do we know (F) is a technician?
Hello,
Thank you for the video explanation. When I first started to solve the game myself I had interpreted the rules to mean that (F) would have to be a technician since (F) cannot supervise anyone else. Later, I backtracked and realized I am confused as to how we know from the rules that (F) has to be at technician? Where in the rules does it say that every manager must supervise?
An example I came up with is:
P: (G)
M: (F) (H)
T: (K) (L)
In this scenario I had (G) supervise (F) and (H) and then had (H) supervise the two technicians.
I definitely struggled after making these scenarios with (F) as a manager but could you please provide some clarification as to how we definitively know (F) must be a technician?
Thank you!

I am not sure if perhaps I am missing something in your question or if this was a simple case of looking at something for too long and going blind to it, but the rules that states every manager must supervise is the third rule in the list of rules!
This would render the scenario above impossible as F would have to supervise at least one employee, but cannot according to the rules.
I hope this clears things up!

Yep, I think I did too many games in a row.
That really cleared it up and also makes sense why I was struggling with a lot of the answers that I was able to find- evidently impossible- scenarios.
