Thats true, and I agree you don't recall 55 furloughs just because you saved $2M. BUT, it serves as an example of how the senior management at Airways is incapable of running a profitable airline. They aren't willing to go through the 'stress' of running an efficient company and because of that the hardworking folk who have been furloughed stand that much less of a chance of returning to work here any time soon.

I guarantee there are dozens of examples we can find where senior managers at Airways could save the company money - but instead opt to 'take it easy' because they feel secure enough in their jobs. Why focus on the expenses when you KNOW that your revenue will return this year?
