IAH will go up a bit over the next couple of months, looking at the vacancies.

Guess what happens when they get to upgrade? A whole bunch of vacancies appear. This happens at MCI. ORD, MIA, and IAH. So what you see now is not what it is going to be like when someone take a job at Republic and comes out of training, that is why it is a waste of time to answer "how long are reserve times or how long does it take to hold base X".
I think it’s ok to ask and it’s not a waste of time. Those hiccups suck but it seems like what you’re saying is that reserve times are shorter then what was stated?
