The reason I’m asking, if Spirit thinks this workforce reduction may not be more than a couple months I wonder if it would be financially worth it not to downgrade anybody also not tie up any resources for the process just a downgrade and then upgrade somebody for a few months.

asking for a friend.

I don't see a point on furloughing unless they don't plan to need you for at least 6 months... and more like a year.
