With an upgrade in there in the middle to boot. Like it or not, their plan will probably work exactly as they say it will. Their real problem is getting through the next 15-18 months while we are still shrinking.
Go back and read what I wrote. I did not say it wasn't possible, and I'm certainly not going to carry RJ's water for him. My point was that making a career decision on a flow-through needs to be based on all the information, which includes a historical background of the good, bad, and the ugly. The guy asked the question, he deserves that much. The promise of flow-through has been the carrot dangling from the stick used to whip us. Believing that flowing to AA by such a program is a sure thing would be foolish. Even with all the retirements, we could have another financial collapse, or more likely AAG could decide that in order to preserve their regional feed they must stop the flow, as snippercr said. What are we going to do, GRIEVE IT? Yea, great, more years of our life lost waiting for an arbitrator to eventually screw us again.
If the guy still comes to Envoy and flows it 5 years, good for him. But he needs to understand that may not happen too.
