Ashley I have heard it several times during US Budget crises going through Congress
Quite often US Government workers are put on furlough when a budget cannot not be reached. I never really know what that meant. I am on furlough now though. Not sure I know what it means and have no idea how much or when I will get any money. |

when corus 1st went belly up on Teesside in 2011 about 200 of us were kept on with government money doing training, whilst they looked for a buyer, and they hoped to use it as a blueprint for future work closures ,and they called as A SKILLS RETENTION plan,didnt suit everyone because you only got 1200 a month 4/500 down on normal monthly basic wage,most took chance of getting redundo package and most got back when SSI bought it,if they wanted to come back, I did it because I could manage and thought I always had the redundo package in my back pocket but when ssi did a runner I only got the basic government redundo package cost me about 18 grand,but got4 4 years work with SSI out of it
