Very true but most of the 50 won't be off the street guys.

Very true. Basically sounds like it won't be the 100 or so like previous months. Still better than 0!

well, with this slowdown here's a question for training during the holidays. Is there a provision in the contract to allow days off for Thanksgiving/Christmas/New Year's while in training?

Usually, those holidays are taken off.

I would think the hiring has to start picking up again sometime soon. Isn't their around 350 guys in the pool right now and growing each day? If they do 50 a month then they don't need to hire for 7 months and I can't see that happening. Have they started calling the May CJO's yet?

You could argue that "ouch" is more appropriate for the last few groups that went to 7ER, and will stagnate or perpetually slide backwards.

I'm a 20 Jul INDOC guy. Can you explain some on what you mean? Why will 7ER stagnate or slide backwards in your opinion? Thanks and I'm looking forward to getting on board!!
