That’s was the first I heard of it.......so because the company said expect the MOAB I thought we would have said MOAB.....

Before you answer, let me partially answer the question... definitely not someone well known enough to only use his first name.
Job title please next time. Oscar and a couple others can be first name but NFW Fabian qualifies.

Y'all need perspective. Month after month of bids with 100s of positions each bid is a net net "Mother of all Bids". The bids are limited by training slots so numbers wise what you see is what you can expect.
The question is what will happen during the next down turn. Our VP has said he intends to go on the attack and continue to grow during the next down turn. We shall see . . .
From an historical perspective, IF that happened, and IF that works, it will be genius.

Almost 2000 vacancies have been advertised this year. That number doesn’t include backfills.
Considering how junior CA, WB CA and WB FO are going and that training capacity is maxed out, I don’t know what more could be done.

Bo was the System Chief Pilot. Totally different.
