Dunno, he may talking about the "good ole days" with 1 (one) manager in the room (Cenco), team leaders who were FPC and rated on all positions but weren't rostered to hold down a line, and rostering that covered breaks for everyone. Of course, TAAATS is so "good" that the bean counters figured staffing could be halved, more "managers" and less "controllers" were required, and the system would run itself............
