Death sentence. Some of the people furloughed are the people who make sure everyone gets paid. The next payday, the President notices he didn’t get paid. As a matter of fact, no one got paid. So he calls Payroll and no one answers the phone because they are all gone.
I understand furloughs/layoffs for the positions where someone is getting paid to sit at home. There are positions like payroll, the people who support the remote teaching software and the people responsible for registration and posting grades/degrees that will be taking how many days off in the next six weeks? At least everyone is being treated equally.
