then got fired and replaced.

From what i've heard the numbers never actually came back. All of them got fired but only some of them got replaced. I suspect most current ATC's know this. Nobody is gonna want to work that thankless job if the fed is firing everybody because they wont resolve the poor working conditions every few decades.
