[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not me.....but a friend of mine.

She had lost three jobs in private industry, though no fault of her own, and the last time was when she was 51 and it took her 10 months to secure a new job - which was with the government. She said she couldn't go through another layoff at her age, and she knew her government job would be secure. When I asked her how she felt about the furlough, she said it wasn't ideal but that it was a lot better than what she went through in private indistry and wouldn't change back for the world.

In the meantime, she drove over to her mother's condo in O.C. She said she likes it there when it's cold.

Hope she knows she has to report to work as soon as the shutdown finishes. You can’t just leave town [/quote]

I’m sure people will have enough notice that she can get back here from Ocean City.[/quote]
First PP here. Actually (and I spoke to her today), she has a plan: She works from home T, Th, and F, so even if by some miracle they open the government on Tuesday, she has a laptop and can work from the Oc condo. She said she'll take Wed (her office day) off with annual leave, and then work from the Oc condo on Th and Fr. Her plan is to return a week from Monday, either way. [/quote]
