Leo drafted the quota system proposal himself, rather than delegating it to Ethan.
He sat in his office all afternoon, listing out the milestones for every project Pennsylvania was currently pushing forward.
The natural gas pipeline renovation, phase one infrastructure of the Computing Power Special Zone, and the preliminary engineering for Three Mile Island—across all three parallel initiatives, the most critically understaffed trades at each stage remained constant: electricians, pipefitters, welders, instrumentation and control technicians, heavy machinery operators, and maintenance workers with nuclear power experience.
He set a strict quota cap for each of these six trades. The slots would be released according to project milestones. The initial batch would offer three hundred spots, with a second batch only released after verifying the actual arrival and onboarding rate of the first.
Roosevelt's voice echoed in his mind.
