I think it has become common in the industry where they build a schedule based on demand and then adjust it to the short-comings in staffing. At least they’re doing it well in advance and not after the lines come out or 24 hours in advance.

It really is a good problem to have when you understand what’s driving it is the fact that demand came back much quicker than predicted.
