[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I may (and probably will) get flamed for this, but I have a hard time finding sympathy for people (above a grade 9 that is) that have not planned for this. Maybe it was because I came from private sector before I became a fed, but this situation is hardly a surprise. The environment in Congress has been toxic for many years and the sequestration has hardly been a secret. We all KNEW it could come to this. DH and I planned for it. We pared back expenses and saved, just in case. We also live within our means. I do, however, feel a great deal of sympathy for support staff (9 and below). [/quote] +1 I posted earlier about going back to work part-time. We have also saved, pared back, ect. It still hurts a family of 5. (3 little people). DH is new to DOD. [/quote]
