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.
Exactly. Correct me if I’m wrong, but there have been zero promises, documents, or even whispers from the company OR union that the VILs will “save jobs” “prevent furlough” etc. They were sold as a way to get a little pay for a whole month off. Nothing more.
