“Here’s the translation, broken down, in plain English.
· The TSA has a work force of 43,000.
· TSA blogger Christopher [White] says TSA has had a total of “more than 110,000 employees” in its six-year history.
· That means more than 67,000 individuals who entered into employment contracts with TSA have left the agency over this period of six years.
That’s not attrition. That’s exodus. And it’s egregious fiscal waste.”
It seems we have different ways of looking at statistics, DHS.
100,000 people signed on over six years. Over six years 67,000 left. 67,000/6 = 11167 per year. 11167/100,000 = total turnover rate per year. You and Annie talked attrition, I talked turnover. She, and you, wanted to make things look bad. I wanted to make tings look neutral. That is how statistics are used, for better or worse.
