The staffing at AA is a mystery. We will see a lot of new hires in the next year. The actual number is anyone’s guess. We have vacancies where 30 openings are posted and they award 10 or 60. It’s a crap shoot. AA has a lot of retirements coming up. If we plan to be the same size, massive hiring will have to occur.

What sort of “short term plan” are you looking for beyond that?
