That means 14 out of 200 fed employees showed up for work that day. Most of the building was in flames

Yep,, because the rest were out on annual leave, of which Fed employees get about 100 days per year not counting holidays. So they show up at an address, (can't call it work) about 200 days a year. Must be nice.......

Humm. My wife likes hyperbole too. From:

http://www.usajobs.gov/ei/benefits.asp#icc

“Our leave policy provides ample time off to take care of your personal, your recreational and your health care needs. In addition to 10 paid holidays every year, you will accumulate 13 days of sick leave each year along with from 13 to 26 vacation days, depending on your years of employment.”

About the same as my non government job, except that I can’t accumulate sick leave from year to year.
