…there’s a story behind that, but I can’t tell it:)
Fuck you, Schwarzenegger!
Thanks to that gap toothed Nazi cocksucker we have has governor, today is a furlough day for Grace and pretty much her whole department…and other state departments, too. And so it will go every other Friday until something changes.
I hope that Austrian asshole chokes to death on one of his cigars.

Civil servants and other public service employees in Ontario had similar “Rae Days” back in 1993, where people in our province had to take two days off a month without pay (12 days/year) as a cost savings measure.
There was a great deal of push back from the public, and a great deal of antipathy against the then NDP government who organized this “social contract” (that came back to haunt Bob Rae and no doubt played a role where his ambitions to be Canadian PM were scuttled). There were many strikes and subtantial layoffs, too.
As loathed as Ray Days were(and there are mutterings our current Ontario premier, Dalton McGinty may soon institute “Dalton Days”), some have argued that this spared even deeper public sector cutbacks and layoffs back in the early 1990s.

Ouch that is one of the things I sometimes worry about too. It’s even in our work contract that if the government needs to they can furlough some of us to help with budget problems.
