I don't want to come off naive of what's coming in up in October. I just feel like I'm in career no-mans-land and wishful thinking of getting on board and a seniority number.

I would think that there are many wanting to trade their class date for a spot in the pool, so that they won't go from the top of their seniority list to the bottom of another. I know they much have bigger fish to fry other than 'lil minnow me swimming in the pool though.

Just checked the vacancy bid, classes of April 13 and 20 already had people not show up from the 8 per class there was supposed to be, so I would say you could easily replace somebody... I'm sure it will keep happening... call them
