Before they rescinded 309 displacements, I'd estimated a high end of 2678 forced into NB seats -
Displacement Bid 20-07D Some of the NB bases guys are bidding to are significantly different than my first guesstimate, here the current totals.
CLE - 39
DCA - 396
DEN - 325
EWR - 378
GUM - 16
IAH - 252
LAX - 202
ORD - 274
SFO - 349
Here's the part that's grim, we've hired about 2350 since 23 Jan 2016 (if you don't know why this date is significant, see 1-c-1-h).
In his displacement announcement, BQ said "there should be enough information conveyed in this displacement for you to make informed conclusions". All by itself, this first displacement is setting us up almost perfectly to cut guys up to that hiring date. I've made an informed conclusion and am gonna throw up in my mouth a bit now.
I count 2300 (maybe a dozen more) on the current list since Jan 23, 2016. 17-18% of the list. Oct 1st is a long way off though. No demand no jobs. My nj governor is telling us how many people we can play golf with and outlawing picnics in parks... ny gov is "guessing" no restaurants until the fall. Too many politicians in love with their faces on tv for a daily briefing making decisions. On the other hand why stay in NY when you can catch an hour flight to somewhere you can go out to eat, workout, and enjoy getting out!
