I guess the problem seems to be that the firefighters start at the beginning of May and go until the middle of September. So you're looking at not quite six months, but a good five months and then their accumulated overtime which would make them eligible. What I think the problem is is that once they're deemed eligible, they may still have some overtime left that they're waiting for, that they possibly could get once they're deemed eligible. I think that's the system I'm talking about trying to improve. If you can somehow give them their final pay-out once their eligibility is confirmed for UI. Thank you.
