If the trend continues for 1000 vil a month, if you’re the bottom 300 on the list I’d say you’re in danger come October.
1000 VIL’s by my back of the napkin math pays the entire company payroll for roughly a day. And I’m not sure they’re going to put the savings into individual buckets by employee group.
300 first year FO’s x 58 dollars an hour (generous with the 321 override) x 72 hours per month = $1.253M. Maybe $2M with all benefits included.
I dont have a problem with looking at it in terms of furloughs prevented per month. But it needs to presented to us that way with some numbers beside them we can grab ahold of mentally.
My greater point was that saving 1 day of entire company payroll is rearranging deck chairs on the Titanic.
