That would be impossible just because those numbers change so dramatically over time. Average employment length has both been higher and lower at points in history than it is now. Number of regionals worked at was probably a lot higher in 2002 and 2008 when all of them were furloughing. Since no regionals will probably furlough this year people hired now may be sticking with one.
