I don't work for Knight but I do work for a fortune 500 company so I can see that could be the direction they were/are going.
7 to 10 days is unfortunate. But given they are starting back up and the demand they had/have on thier products right now, I can undestand the delay as well. I'm not making excuses because I have no need to defend them. But I don't see any cause for major concern at this point. But heck, that's just my $0.02.
You make a valid point and when i did the hiring, i was the same way. But, you have to know your product to teach the new help. it seems they do not!
7-10 days to get out items that are supposed to be in stock, is just plain redicolous. If they plan to make it, it seems they need big changes and the sooner the better.
