I obviously wasn't privy to all the details, but some of the situations she described was that after last March they furloughed (laid off? not sure) a lot of people that they subsequently couldn't get to come back when demand improved.

Your original comment:

Did it not occur to you that your statements are entirely contradictory? What actually happened here? Did people quit to get that sweet, sweet government lucre or were they "furloughed" ("no, we're not firing you, we're just not going to pay you or give you work for an indefinite period") and then decide that, gee, maybe they didn't want to come back to work for a company that kicked them to the curb the second things got tough?

So they didn’t quit, they were furloughed or laid off? Why the hell does the employer expect those people to come back? They shouldn’t have stopped paying them in the first place.
