Fur-lough Friday
Jul. 10th, 2009 05:45 pmThe university chancellor is recommending mandatory furlough days to save money. I would have to take 13 days between September through next August. These unpaid days would be about a 5% pay cut. The only decent thing is that these can be scheduled within the department, kinda like vacation days. I couldn't afford to take them all at once, but I do enjoy a day off. It'd be nice to be able to pay the bills, though!
To keep up with Dilbert, they emailed us later in the afternoon to mention that we had record profits this last year. Despite furloughs, they will be paying every employee a (small) bonus. I'm not making this up.
