I'm amused my fellow liberals are believing this guy isn't going to roll over after 30 seconds.
Anyway, at this point I've concurred with the other guy who said we won't ever shut down again. They know that we know it's free leave, and we can't be having that, now.

South Park made a sequel to the Manbearpig episode where al gore is right and manbearpig is real and on a killing spree.

I’m sick of my livelihood being a chess piece in this bullshit childish game they play. The fact we aren’t a MUST FUND budget item is asinine. 🖕

I could go for like a one week shutdown 👌
I am real.

You must understand something, see. We're forever too essential to send home during a shutdown. However, we're never essential enough that anyone actually gives a flying f about us.

Prediction made!
I'd remember to follow all the rules this time

I’ll tell you this: after what took place in 2019, I’m likely to become very ill before I miss a paycheck.

Thats what I was saying about following the rules. Don't just call sick and switch to furlough, I bet they are going to be all over that this time around.

Ill have to go dig it up, but any approved leave is automatically furlough unless the employee elects to use their leave instead (lol)

I think you want to be a little more careful about making sure you request furlough, because they changed the rules after the last shutdown. It used be that you would request SL or whatever, and the rule was "no approved leave during a shutdown" so it became furlough automatically. Now it IS possible to have approved leave during a shutdown if you elect to use it... so you should make it clear that you aren't electing to use it.

I would expect them to start enforcing sick leave letters (a lol on it's own), my further point is make sure you go to a doctor or something and can actually back it up.
I'd expect some collaborative decisions regarding SL usage during a shutdown. I would NOT expect the more than 3/4 days thing to be acceptable after the union caves to whatever guidance the agency deems appropriate

Worst case you get a sick leave letter. No matter how long you’re out, It’s one occurrence. They can’t give you a letter until you come back. I’d take a SL letter for that. You wouldn’t make that deal?
Minute clinic visits are free. Bad diarrhea can be quite the thing. Sore threats are insidious this time of year. Headaches are also a common thing with the changing of the seasons. Anxiety caused by not having a paycheck might also rear its ugly head.

The upside of a shutdown is that its hard to enforce anything. No HR no LR. And after that first zero paycheck, even management stops caring. The question is if we wait for the first non paycheck or fire the first shot off rip

It would be a shame if I took my muscle relaxers I’m prescribed for my back that is a 10 day DQ from last dose
