How do you send an entire class home from training and then blame a pilot shortage?

it was mismanagement plain and simple. They were repeatedly told that pilots will not put up with the shenanigans very long before leaving. They never hired more than enough to fill seats, never any reserves hired, and a s a result never enough pilots when one guy leaves, let alone when six leave in one month.

Sad to see them go actually, because in spite of their failings for a small company they were better to work for than many much larger regionals.
