[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]the commute was fantastic - but I am sorry for all the people who are taking a cut. I could not imagine taking a 10 - 20% paycut. And if you have a spouse in government as well. I am angry with leaders in both agencies and in Senate / House who could not figure out how to make it work. [/quote] It's a 20% cut for three months not for the whole year. That works out to 5% for the year. Sucks, but better than not having a job.[/quote] You are both correct and incorrect. It is a 20% cute for the next three months. There will be deeper cuts for next year and the next. Sequestration is 10 years of deep cuts that are pretty arbitrary. So agencies that got off the hook this FY potentially could be furloughed next. 10 years of paycuts. That is HUGE.[/quote]
