Joshy 4,316 / 43,147 Report Post Posted January 21, 2018 I'm not saying a furlough is a good thing, but the last one wasn't ** that ** bad for the working individuals. Civil Servants will be out of work for a few days up to a couple of weeks and the contractors will continue their role; critical position such as defense and security is usually lightly affected. Civil Servants who were out of work briefly were paid for their time off last time anyways. It's a very expensive and embarrassing protest.

I never expected joining the Military and not getting paid cause the Government couldn't figure their shit out Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
