Hello Frosty, hang in there. My first day of work in 1995 was the first day of the shutdown and I didn't get paid for 2 months, but I did get paid. My creditors did not allow me to pay when I got the check, I had to pay on time. But I was proud of my work taking care of veterans. Still am. The entire IT department is going to be furloughed, so if there's a computer problem, and it impacts veteran care, people will just have to be patient (I am non-IT, but rely on it a lot). You make total sense to me, a disabled veteran who cares about his country and his brother and sister veterans who have been injured and who need medical attention. Oh, the election following the shutdown saw the political ouster of a lot of the people who had brought it on, so you are right about that too.
