I only got two. Can you break down how you figured that out?

All the essential employees are working without pay like Air Traffic Control and TSA, airport security

The furloughed employees were laid off because they are "non essential"

edit: you have more than 2 brain cells, you are being too modest, dare I say sarcastic

Actually, I got 2.4! ~lol You said most of them aren't essential, meaning we only need like 1.05 million staff. I'm just tryna figure out which of those other 1.05 million people you'd be firing.

I don't know how many were on furlough... these are not essential employees

If they were 'essential', they would not have been placed on furlough
