[QUOTE="vantexan, post: 996924, member: 24302"] Talked to someone with serious clout today(and that's all I'll say about who he is). He said there is a hiring freeze of sorts occurring. The jobs posted in JCATS were resubmitted for approval before being posted, which is why there aren't many openings now. Only positions that absolutely must be filled to meet operational needs are being approved. Many requests are being rejected so that the ranks can be thinned through attrition. Which led me to ask about buyouts. He said extremely unlikely, that reductions in the workforce were coming through attrition. He also said there's no effort being made to reduce everyone to minimum hours. I asked if Express would be a strictly overnight service and got the standard it's very possible due to the changing nature of the marketplace. As I said, he has serious clout, didn't try to argue anything with him. Did say he didn't know all the details of the October announcement yet and he's up the food chain a bit. Came across as honest.
