[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I knew no one had been furloughed yet.  From today's Wa Post

"This is the uncertain and uneven landscape of the furloughs that in less than three weeks will begin to affect more than half of the nation’s 2 million federal employees."

How exactly does a statement that many Federal employees will begin furloughs in 3 weeks equate to your assertion that not a single  Federal employee has been forced to take a furlough day thus far?  I'm sorry, but do you really believe the Washington Post interviewed every component of every Federal agency before writing this story?

Are you accusing the PP who said she has already taken furlough days of lying?  [/quote]

Do you really, in your heart of hearts, think anyone has taken a furlough day?  Do you think the Post wouldn't have fact checked and/or interviewed anyone to whom it has happened? [/quote]

Yes, "in my heart of hearts" I do think some furlough days are already playing out.  Why are you so convinced of the contrary?

And I feel quite confident in saying that WaPo does not have full knowledge of everything that happens to 2 million+ Federal employees in more than 1,000 distinct agencies/organizations across the US.
