How Many are Leaving?
Back on topic guys;
As of August 2006, we needed to recruit a-man-a-day for just over two years to man the Company's planned expansion. At that time, my Fleet Management stated they were at about 6 per week inbound; i.e. 1 man per week shortfall.
I spoke with some of our colleagues that attended a briefing earlier this year, where one of the Managers indicated that we started to lose crew back into NAM carriers at the rate of 2 per week from mid November 2006.
That 3 per week behind the drag curve, assuming we manage to improve in the second half of last year.
I wonder what the management will try next to bludgeon an improvement in moral when the shortage starts to bite?
