He’ll probably sign it around 11:30 p.m.

Nobody is whinging. It’s called boundaries. I’m not doing a single thing to prepare in advance. On Thursday I will wake up, check email, then head in at an unhurried pace. This probably means getting in a bit late if the news doesn’t come out until late Weds, but I’m fine with that.

Good question. I was thinking Thursday but others I’ve spoken to think Friday.

My lunch will packed Wednesday night.

I was thinking Thursday but just saw the House rules committee won’t meet about the bill until 6:30. Seems like it would be hard to accomplish it all in 5.5 hours including Trump signing it?

Trump could sign in the early hours of Thursday and we will still be working that day. I think you have 4 hours to come in...though I assume if its signed at 11 am they might offer some options.

Boundaries, well, that's why it's called "work" for most people. But not Club Fed, apparently. Like you had your busy furlough schedule all set and now they want you to come in to your JOB? Oh the boundary violation.

Lol, please. The House has not met since mid-SEPTEMBER and yet we’re supposed to scurry back in on four hours’ notice? That’s unprofessional.

I have a clean conscience. Flame away, I don’t GAF. the new social contract of the DOGE era is pretty clear. I know I will have Trump favored industry breathing down my neck to get unfair prioritization and I have zero compunction about getting to work at 10:30am the first day after furlough.

Assume you have to, and if you discover you don't consider it a gift and get back in bed.

I’m sorry we’ve been working 40 days also without pay, taking any time off is jumping by furlough hoops and frowned upon my leadership. Having to wake up early one morning and then getting the day off is not a hardship — esp now that the question of withholding pay or RIF is off the table.

Look at what others endured basically to get the can kicked down the road and maybe or maybe not healthcare subsidies/access so you can get to work and get your money now.
