Time since date of hire is just an easier metric.
So if you were hired in october and got off of ioe january, for example, and get a line in june, that's 8 months to hold a line, not 4.
Weekends was a figure of speech.
So you're saying its a year to hold a line because some guys dropped orders after indoc and aren't through training yet.
Okay.
What matters is time after indoc, not your metric that you just came up with.
With your goal posts, it's 5 months. FYI.
