Actually, nobody will get a furlough notice until April 4th. The company has to give 90 day notice to the union, which will happen Jan. 4th. BT may not be able to stop the current MOU, but when we fall 30 million short, don't look for anything else to stop the furlough. Guys, BT thinks furlough is just part of the job for junior guys. Don't think for a second that he will try real hard to prevent one!
BTW, how nice of the union to post displacement bid instructions with or without a furlough today. Think they are trying to tell us something?
