It depends on how your agreement is. I spent some time on a furlough board where you protected 6 days a half and were paid for 4 so it depends on what a guarantee day is in your terminal. Our checks were $400-500 a half bring home, so you will pretty much have to get a second job the way they are set up. Of course if you work those days it would be whatever percentage of the job paid for your scale.
