After one year and 500 hours at United he will be going to upgrade training unless someone else bids his slot. With slowed hiring, hopefully that happens since he's not ready. I'm personally hoping that hiring does not get back to the pace that it was. Controlled growth is good, but the unchecked growth that we were experiencing was a problem waiting to happen.
