They didn't take nearly as long. Plus they actually caught an occasional would-be terrorist because they were more concerned with rooting out suspicious people rather than someone carrying more than 3.5 oz. of shampoo or hair conditioner on board.
Here’s the fine print though: “Pay would be restored at the end of any withholding period”
So, they what? have to charge their credit cards for awhile...maybe get a (oh no) a REAL JOB for the interim period. Try working at 7/11 and then complain...I think all FEDERAL EMPLOYEES are on the dole and that includes my ex-brother-in-law. So many agencies are BOGUS and a front to funnel money to another democrat slush fund!
