Yeah, the 50% is a SLIGHT underestimate but for a ballpark, yeah, that’s about half of the group will be in the first three years.

I know, math is hard.

But yes NK certainly can’t grow like that indefinitely- the population of humans on Earth isn’t growing 15% annually.

But preCOVID they were cooking right along at a 15-17% annual growth rate.



They certainly can’t keep that growth rate up forever but as long as they can keep it up the bottom half of the seniority list is ALWAYS going to be three years or under - at least after the 2020 COVID distortion ages out.

And no, I wasn’t the FO who passed out.

Sorry, but math not good....
In order to have half of the seniority list below you, the company needs to double in size, not grow 50%, so it takes 5 years at 15%.
