Now I can see where some guys were frustrated that they don't just furlough. Who the heck is just going to volunteer to be furloughed when they had all that time to take a LOA or COMA and still could? A really poorly intended email if you ask me. C'mon dude!
I thought the same thing. They offer voluntary furloughs for a year with no benefits, while offering COMA for a year with full benefits? Duh...

This from the same guy who brought us the "$75 roll pf paper". Another poorly thought out memo.
