The company will take a huge step in right sizing their staffing today, as in increased staffing!

I think they are working through this process with LOA 21 agreed to yesterday for Multi-Class Bid relief.

Im not sure I completely understand this LOA. Can you expand in this?

Those that were displaced last time around might be back in the left seat before ever taking the pay cut.

Again, I didn't hear this right from the top, but definitely from 3 reliable people in the know.

For the folks on the bubble, I sure hope so. Good luck.

So this is going to completely close both LGA and BOS??? Where the heck am I supposed to bid to then? We can't bid to the Q. I didn't think I would have to clap again til I got the hell out of this place...

Think of this as "advanced entitlement" bidding instead of realignment. The class dates can be 9 months out. If the company wanted, they could have this do the next YEAR of vacancies in one, with minor changes along the way.

Bid where you WANT to end up.
