[quote=Anonymous]It's nice to think that fat will be trimmed, but the law is specifically written not to allow that to actually happen. Any cuts are required to take place across the board, so no forced retirements and no cancellations of expensive or unnecessary capital projects (yes, DoD, that means you). Thus all employees being furloughed across the board. I agree that agencies have seen this coming for a while and have been preparing as well as they can by putting holds on replacement hiring or postponing those projects that they can. The reality is that there is very little fat left to be trimmed in most places, as they are working with below-capacity staff (so hardly anyone is getting away with "doing nothing").[/quote]
