And the third Furlough Gets Added to the List

So It was made official today that state employees will be taking a mandatory third furlough day. It's hard seeing the logic to this so If someone can explain to me how this is supposded to save the state money then please tell me. Anyways, the Elevator Unit (which I work for), makes alot of money for the state daily. I'm not completely ready and today I was able to make $400 for the state before lunch. Typically, an elevator inspector can make $1000 dollars for the state PER DAY. Theres roughly 70 inspectors for the state so that means thatt the state makes $70,000 a day just from the elevator unit. Taking away 3 days out of the month means that the state is losing out on $210,000 A MONTH. I know what u are thinking, "What about the money the state pays you?" You can look at it 2 ways. The first way is simple... Do you really think the state pays the inspectors more than $1000 a day? No my friend, inspectors make about $200-$350 a day. So taking the upper range, the state would be paying $73,500 a month for the three days they took away. But that just means that the state could have been making $136,500 after paying us. Still alot for three days right?
