“Day 26”
About 800,000 federal workers have been affected by the shutdown. On Tuesday, members of the Coast Guard missed their paychecks, while food safety inspectors were asked to return to work without pay. A typical federal worker has missed $5,000 in pay so far

Even without pay, many workers continue to show up for a variety of reasons, including a ban on government workers striking and strong beliefs in what they do.

I hope this doesn’t have anything to do with something that happened on reddit or someones emotions getting out of hand and trying to abuse their power. merrrrrrr

Because…you know, a lot of folks don’t have a lot of money in the bank for more than a few months and people could starve if this is because of some selfish mistake that could have been prevented.

hmm…who knows though, i’m sure its just the weather.
