Hmmm… This furlough thing may not be the disaster initially envisioned. Instead of requiring people to take a day a week, as was our first impression, HR (always a fount of accuracy…) is saying they expect employees to take one unpaid day per paycheck.
- For faculty working and paid on a 12-month appointment,this furlough program will beginJan. 30, 2009(pay period 1.26.09
I am so happy to see this situation devolve a little into something more reasonable. But it still sucks. Especially the part where you just wait for the axe to fall. Take care of yourself in this stressful time…
