400 hired? We didn't have 25% attrition there either. 100 left but not entirely from these 400 bodies. We had people leave that were hired in previous years so they aren't in that 400.
With 1800 on property and 100 leaving that is a YTD attrition of 5.3%. Not a good APC Thread Title but facts nonetheless. 25% attrition would be closer to 475 having left which would have shut the airline down.

I swear, Spirit Airlines could asses each passenger with a “chemtrail neutralizer tax” of $1 per ticket and use that to pay the pilots industry leading pay, yet we would have people like you yelling and screaming about how chemtrails aren’t real lol. Not me. I’d be like “heck yeah they’re real”

All our data points to trends going the wrong way and it concerns our safety department and gate keepers.

I'm currently on a trip with a 6-month F/O who has more international experience than I do, has more type ratings than I do, and even speaks more languages than I do (mind you, I speak four).
