It might be a problem in the Office.

Just the naked part; at least for federal government workers.

Gov workers never feel the pain of any economic calamity. Gov shutdown? No problem, sent home, miss a paycheck, go back to work when done, receive all back pay like nothing happened and get a free vacation.

You can bet it's a lot of fed workers pushing for a longer lockdown so they can get an even longer free vacation.

They have zero skin in the game but get all the rewards for doing nothing. It's not right and something should be done to change that like the only pay they would get is regular unemployment pay; nothing more.

Contractors, those who technically work for a contracting firm, do not get paid when the government shuts down, eve though the government has paid the contracting firm under the contract agreement. They pocket the money and the employee does without. We’ve been there.
