The union's impression (and I use this term loosely) is that the company must lower to 48, not 47, nor 49 before a furlough. Kind of like the holy hand grenade. They have hinted at negotiating a lower than 68/80 minimum pay guarantee to aide in not furloughing, but unless something is negotiated, if they want to build to 58, they must buy up to 68. At least that was the gist of my understanding when talking to union guys about it.
