Who knows? The question is whether or not you felt the gamble was worth the risk. It will turn out to be a moot point anyway as the regional model will implode right before our very eyes, so I couldn't care less about the "large RJs". They are not gonna have the manpower to staff them in the near future. I'm gonna enjoy the show. Will the company ask for more "large RJs" going forward? Doubtful.
