The brasilia is actually really thin on FOs because they didn't run transition classes to the RJ for about 8 months. Once they started running transition classes again the flood gates opened and a bunch of people left the bro in a short time period because hardly anyone was seat locked anymore due to the stagnation. As far as I know most of the people in the first July brasilia new hire class got lines right out of training. I went from #29 in domicile to #12 in two months and then transitioned myself.
I got a line right away when I went over to the RJ and I'm still super junior in domicile. We seem pretty thin in the junior RJ bases too.
