The company gets much greater productivity out of its reserve system with the TA notwithstanding the SD memo suggesting we would likely hire last year if we passed it. As a result there's less need for labor from what we had under the old PWA. Granted, let me put that in caps for some, GRANTED, the TA was not responsible for all the overstaffing, it just exacerbated the situation. But, IMO, not to the point that we'd furlough.
