The argument that because a third of people didn’t bid we can expect the land of milk and honey in comparison when everyone gets involved is completely bogus and I don’t know where that understanding has come from. The work has still been allocated around all pilots, the junior guys aren’t picking up the remainder of the work amongst them whilst that segment of the workforce has been given the month off. There isn’t a great deal to be positive about to be honest and, if anything, everyone piling in is only going to make matters worse for the junior bods as the seniority gradient will become steeper.
