Do you by any chance know if that 4000 figure includes people who retired?
There's a disconnect with the numbers. If 100 quit a week, then over the course of a year 5200 are quitting. Maybe that 5200 includes 1200 retirees which would bring down the number quitting to 4000.
However, what I find strange is the number hired last year of only 300. Neffenger claims his "training academy" is taking in 192 new recruits a week, for the two week program. Over 4 weeks, one month, that would mean approximately 380 new screeners are being rolled out.
And they only hired 300 over all of last year?
As I said, there's a big disconnect here.
