There are some smart things in here, but also I see a lot of really stupid stuff. Unless I’m reading it wrong, which is highly possible.
I do see the point about it potentially allowing more furloughs... but what you’re not considering is the cost to the company for your benefits. Also they will still be training every 9 months which also has costs associated.... Again I see your overall point but to say it doesn’t cost the company anything isn’t accurate.
