Scenario 1- no one gets furloughed. Your bid is never run. You keep 100% of your job and pay

Scenario 2- you are involuntary furloughed but there was enough voluntary takers at the senior level that the company decides to award a bunch of half month COLAs. Your conditional bid is ran. Result- whatever your bid can hold/company decides to award (Half month, empty line, etc)

Scenario 3- Same as scenario 2, except someone senior to you didnt put in a bid and is involuntary furloughed, you and everyone junior to him is now involuntary furloughed, regardless of what your bid says. Result- Invol. Furlough

Scenario 4- not enough furlough mitigation and most if not all 2250 are involuntary furloughed. Company can’t afford more half month COLAs so you don’t get any award. Result- Invol. Furlough
