Deal reached....no shutdown

yah i hope that i come to work on monday and actually am told to work and not go home!

but as a subcontractor, it is a tad different than a government employee.
 
Terrible time for my work.....all of these people trying to qualify for hundreds of thousands of dollars, and the IRS is not going to process their 2010 tax returns. 🙁

You'll still get back pay. While not guaranteed, it will most likely happen. I just feel bad for military folks who were living check to check. If this lasts for a couple weeks, they could really feel the sting because they need this money to come in on time or they're going to miss their payments.
 
Yay, almost everyone in my lab has been furloughed or transferred since the continuing resolution mess started since the DoD and DoJ do not know what is going to happen.

I've heard otherwise. That most likely we're not going to receive any back pay.
 
Yeah, this whole fiasco is going to cost me $350 in drill pay this month... that's money I depend on. I already hated the government for their gross incompetence, but now I'm just fuming. The fact that all of these government employees will not get paid right now while the politicians still receive theirs is beyond asinine.
 
What kills me is all this horseshit is over abortion...🙄

These fuckheads are really going to shut down the government over spending on Planned Parenthood? The amount of federal spending that goes to PP is about .01%...or in other words, NOTHING!

Briefing reporters, Reid seemed confounded as to Republicans' ultimate goal. Democrats, he said, were now offering $38 billion in spending reductions, and that Thursday night's White House meeting produced agreement on all but one of the GOP's favored spending guidelines — which would restrict abortion services.

"We've come to realize that the moving target is now focused on the backs of women in America," Reid said.

Cutting funding for Planned Parenthood is like removing a drop of water from a swimming pool.

Fucktards.
