I know this might not be the best place to ask this question, but maybe someone who was furloughed before can answer. I was furloughed on Jan 19th, and checked my 401k to see how bad Wall Street had ravaged it. I noticed Comair didn't waste any time letting them know I was furloughed and yanked my earned company match (I'm obviously not vested yet.)
My question is, if I was to be recalled would I have any chance of getting that money back?

Man, no one is going to take this "package". You got the large majority of the 10 percenters -top of seniority- who, if you look at their bdate, are @ the 50 y.o. age. Average seniority at that point is @ 17 years. That's 34 weeks of pay, for a 50-55 y.o. person, with quite possibly a lot of bills -still- and maybe kid(s) to help thru college. And on top of that, their "retirement" package/savings is in the dumps. Throw in a really bad economy where the prospects for a job -any job- are slim, specially by the fact they have been pigeon holed doing only one thing -flying- for the last 2 decades. Put yourself in that situation, and what would you do?. Th only ones that MAY consider taking this offer, are the ones with a second source of income. Another business, early good investments, income earning spouses, etc. This is a moot point.........time for a pool. I'll say 10 PILOTS will take this offer. Throw your number in the hat.
17 hours without a post. Can't let that happen.
Anyhow, here's a posting of mine from a few days ago. Anyone interested in throwing a number into the pool?.

Well, we are already up to 10 confirmed people now so we'll see what happens. I'll bet you have about 20 more next week.
