It looks like only 8 invol furloughs for August 4th. Sucks for those 8. However, I'm right behind you. Dreading the day the furlough letter comes.

Algarete

For those that have been through this before, do they/will they/ or have they ever furloughed mid-month?

405PA

More like 39. With everything else staying the same people have to leave from some where.

106->82 msp sfca = 24
94 ->84 dtw sfca = 10
60 ->55 mem sffo = 5

Not sure about 39...because if that were the case, I, along with others from my class, would have gotten a furlough letter already and we haven't.......yet......

....sooner rather than later, I guess.

405PA

The math is spelled out in the reduction notice as stated before. If 39 people are disapearing from the list where do you think they are going? It sucks azz, but its reality.

On a side note I find the title of this thread the ultimate irony due to the full cycle for better and worse(it could be Mesaba Furloughs/Displacements or Mesaba...?....?....). Overall things have been better here the last couple years and there is still alot to be thankful for when you look around. Hopefully every one can realize its a marathon and not a sprint even the furloughed guys.

There's a good chance those displaced won't be on the line and bidding for their 'new' positions until September. Thus, only 8 invols on top of the voluntaries for August. You're right, the math is spelled out in the reduction notice...

LoudFastRules

What is happening from the reduction notice is that plenty of people are going in to training. As that progresses, then there will be further groups of furloughs.

Only the company knows what the timing for all of this will be. They've never been all that great at communicating. Remember how we all found out about the Saabs from a small town Arkansas newspaper?

Colnago

I'm not contradicting you. I'm just stating that it doesn't seem to be August 4th for the rest of us. We've yet to get any furlough letters for that date.
