We aren't getting any pay until the shutdown is over. It's not the time to go on vacation, it's a time to hunker down.
Why wait until the shutdown to hunker down though? You should "hunker down" all the time until you get to a point financially where you don't need to anymore. That way when circumstances beyond your control happen which will impact your income, you have a cushion.

That's why you have to think like an individual even when you're apart of a society.

"if everyone is jumping off a building, would you?" Most people will say no, but they do in other ways all the time. Even our own Government is convincing people it's ok to borrow your way out of debt when the truth is you wouldn't have debt if you didn't borrow in the first place.

Obama is making the Republicans look worse in this press briefing than he has in years just by telling the truth.

Yea, to an Obama worshipping dikkrider such as yourself:stopitslime:
Post the exact quotes in which he lied. But while you're doing that, understand that I will accept criticism from a guy called "Cactain Planet." I'm well beyond anyone calling me an Obama supporter just because I don't feign anger at everything he does like some people. None of you were complaining when I shytted on him for the NSA and his drug policy all year or when I wasn't all guns blazing about going into Syria. Grow up guy, I've reached my expiration point with the childishness in HL. Carry on.

If that was true then just allow it obamacare to take hold of the US. We all already know that republicans care more about power and pride then actual people, they said as much over the past few days.

They have nothing to lose by holding out.:manny:

On a side note, why is it never suggested that the Dems give in? :wtf:

To my fellow federal employees:

A memo just came out that we going to get a check that covers until Sept 30th which was the end of the fiscal year of 2013. So basically that means we getting one weeks pay. The other week will come when they finish this political pissing match over the 2014 fiscal year budget. We should get the check the week of Oct 14th

For some reason I thought September 30 was a month and half away. I was like we're getting a months worth of pay :gladbron::blessed: Then I remembered September was over. :ohhh: Those struggle checks. :wow:
