If you had a full time job less than 10.50 an hour you are correct. If a furlough were making anything above 10.50 an hour you are incorrect. It's not that hard to make 14-15 dollars an hour and kill first year pay. The only thing that saves it, is second year pay, or in the case of the 99 contract third year pay.
