If they was to shut down for the month they would not have to pay holiday pay ( i think ) and all they would be on the hook for would be sub pay to bring unemployment pay up to 95% they would save alot on utilities for the month and this would get them to the end of january when the next leadership in washington takes over .
Sadly I have 5 vacation days left at GM as I have no were to go.
