God bless America.

Save this post under the title, “things that never happened.”

In my hood, most were doing zero work by their own admission and yes, these were highly paid scientists, engineers, etc. I did not notice much guilt in any one of them - but they griped plenty when ordered back to "work". I get it...the law mandates Feds must be paid if furloughed, but this debate is not about that. People should get paid if they work. Simple

The pay can then be made up by working longer hours, during weekends, etc. I want to pay them but if there is snow on the ground for two weeks, I cannot be solvent. Is inclement weather their fault? The guys work hard, have families to feed, etc and earn a fraction of what these lazy a$$ Feds earn so no I don't feel sorry. No work = no pay!

Many federal employees are entitled brats because they have never been disciplined or told “no” by their parents. Fortunately, in his role as “father of the nation,” DJT will hold all federal employees accountable.

Anonymous wrote:This obviously sucks. But what sucks even more is that some people who are excepted and working have been told to mark their timecards as furloughed. So if this comes to pass, they won't get paid even though they've been working as usual.

Not right to pay for work performed in any book. However, those furloughed should not receive back pay. Yes..not their fault govt ran out of money but how is this different from a private employee who lays off employees for the same reason? We assume the loss of employment -why do Feds feel entitled to pay if their employee has no $$ to make payroll.

You’re using the word “should” a lot. Let’s just boil this down to expecting that the administration follows the law. The law says that furloughed feds do get back pay. If you disapprove of this, take it up with Congress, which passed this law with overwhelming bipartisan support. Whether feds feel entitled to it or not is irrelevant. Under the law they are entitled to it.

AMEN

And who is going to enforce this SCOTUS? LOL wake up. And how long will that take to sue the Trump administration?

There will be no back pay. Listen when they spew.

This administration is corrupt and dishonest. It's well documented and irrefutable. They are also making bank. $3.4B and counting.

So get that second job and ask permission later.

Democrats should not throw stones in glass houses.

It’s quite simple actually: No work, no pay.

Got it?

Yes, working until midnight every night and getting up at 6AM so I could get my work done around my infant son's schedule when his daycare was closed was such a vacation.

So you goofed off all day and did some work before they woke up and after went to bed. Whah whah

Sure, keep telling yourself that to hate on feds. The reality is we kept everything going while the world was on fire, and get rewarded with ignorant hate.
