They get paid a 40 hour work week on layoff, bud. They get laid off like this every other month. The media just working against the admin as always. Maybe one day you sheep will wake up...
That's not true. I worked for Stellantis previously. During lay-off you get unemployment checks every two weeks. $390week paid biweekly in Michigan (Warren and Sterling). That's a vast difference for someone used to making +21$ and up along with plenty of overtime and Sundays is double time. Holiday Sunday is double time plus holiday pay if you get lucky enough to work on a holiday that lands on Sunday. Being laid off hurts people's pockets tremendously, especially when you don't know when you will return to work full-time.
I remember a friend telling me back in the '90s, that during their summer shutdown where they typically laid all of production off, that if you didn't volunteer to work over the shutdown, they would take a week of vacation away from you and use it, instead of laying you off.
That was when it was still Chrysler. It's only gotten worse since.
