Amen

Just look at what obama has done to us, turning us against each other. We are a house divided.

Turning anger at what he and the democrat party are doing to ruin this country, against an entire federal workforce of decent people who get up and go to work everyday and try to maintain pride in their professional roles. Beth is the norm, not the exception.

We too looking at a 20% pay cut, just gonna suck it up and try to enjoy the extra time off finding free and cheap stuff to do with the kids

In 2011 I and everybody else where I worked took a 20% pay cut, all bonuses eliminated, and 2 others had to be laid off. Those that stayed didn’t get to take that one day off. But that was solved the next year for me with a 100% reduction in work days and a 100% cut in pay, i.e. layoff, along with three others from the small firm I was working for.

Now having said that, my daughter works for the DoD, and and is getting a 20% cut in pay and furlough. But she was on a 4 day work week anyway, does she only work 3 days now and then 2 hours on her fourth day?
