How does this work if we are down 50-60-70% in October? If demand isn’t remotely close to their planned 30% reduction number, what difference does it make if crews don’t get trained if they aren’t needed? They could still announce a big furlough, train people likely to survive, and then just cancel furloughs this fall if they come up short. If they don’t fall short they can announce another displacement/furlough and start the whole thing over. They are going to need to cut payroll significantly this fall, and my money says that they will find a way to make it work. Sure hope that I’m wrong, but this displacement is just the beginning of what is to come unless things recover dramatically.
