And it really is about QOL anyways. To some folks it means money, to some commute, it’s always different.

At the end of the day it’s our job, not our life.

Thanks all -- great feedback. I plan on submitting an application to RAH so this info is very helpful. Keep it coming if you have any other thoughts, upgrade times or not....

The CA vacancy bid results will come out around March 9th so we’ll see how far the upgrade reaches. Of course, it doesn’t mean much for a new hire now since a lot can change.

Default Upgrade Times?

Down to 2 years 7 months for the upgrade award. August 2015 DOH. 51 upgrades (that’s a record during my time here, for sure).

And everyone gave me a funny look when I told them it was gonna be under 3 years. It was inevitable.

After last months award, absolutely. The drop in upgrade times last month was a huge surprise for me. In the last 2 months it has dropped 10 months.

Yeah I definitely didn’t know how long it’d be when I first came here but after 2 years of the same attrition ahead of me, something have had to have gone wrong for it to be over 3 years.

So the plan is to have 2.5/3 year upgrades for the foreseeable future?

I wouldn’t necessarily call it a plan, but it seems like it’ll stay in that range. We’ve had some pretty large vacancy bids the last couple of months that have brought it down.

We are supposed to see 7-10% growth over the next 2 years according to our esteemed leader so that may drive it down further.

Just like anything in the industry, it is a dynamic situation. It depends on attrition and hiring.
