Working less isn't the worst thing in the world. You can do some retirement type things.. now. While you're young and healthy.
YGTBFKM!!! Are you really as naive as you sound? If we end up not furloughing anyone, it most certainly will be paid by us. We are guaranteed 70/73 hours right now and are not working nearly that much if we bid Reserve. Any reduction in MPG is money out of our pockets. Don't be that guy that expects a handout and doesn't even know or care where it came from.
