What sort of freshman business major would think it's a good idea to throw millions of dollars down the tubes just to put up a front of financial health. If that is really what they are doing then they should be fired for incompetence as this is not the economic environment to be stupid with cash.

I've heard the NJ furlough number is north of 500 and it'll be the first quarter of this year. If that number goes higher because money was wasted then what will pilots think? Still a good idea to not furlough in a fools effort to show how great things are at company X?
