| Really, isn't it a little early to try to piggyback on a terrorist attack? |

Actually, it's a good point. The entire DOJ FBI, ATF is supposed to be doing furloughs this week.
I wonder how this is going to work. |

Just like they knew it would. They will work whether payment is coming or not. I just want to hear from the loudmouths that think we need to be furloughed. |

| I work for DOJ. I don't think we were starting furloughs this week. Were some components starting this week? |

| Yes, until you are needed. |

Numbers are expected this week, with some components starting Friday or next week depending (if needed). Since we all had to chip in to keep BOP up and running (again, I say let the criminals out on the street - if Feds aren't needed I'm sure convicts can run free) we are recalculating. |

| A friend of mine works at the Patent and Trademark agency. He said their fees are a cash cow and they are hiring at least a thousand (yes, 1k) new employees this year. |

What does this have to do with this thread? |

| FBI has not started furloughs yet. A decision on how many days each DOJ component will have to take is expected this week. |

Isn't that what I said? |
