Did I say they are overstaffed? Hiring normally looks ahead. The hiring they are doing is very small. A few years back they were very short. 1.5 pay flowed like wine. Just like at Delta pilots don't pickup at straight rates if the can get 1.5 or at Delta double pay. When open time gets scarce guys grab what they can at straight rates.
