In any business, people who have done the job before are better skilled at it than people starting from scratch, by and large, unless they have been managed out for a different reason. In many cases, the work was not available for these people and the DAA wanted them off the pay roll to reduce its cost base, which is totally understandable given the downturn. Is it the case that that is it, and those people are precluded from coming back?
