Lava Rock Posted January 20, 2018 Share Posted January 20, 2018 Blows. We lose at least one month of good winter weather every year it seems now. I figured we dodged the Grinch storm this year and maybe we'd have a great rest of the season, but not looking great in the short term.

S&P Posted January 20, 2018 Share Posted January 20, 2018 8 hours ago, OceanStWx said: Yes. All but the administrative assistant are considered essential employees and show up to work as scheduled. We are not being paid. Yet. To this point essential employees (and furloughed employees) have always gotten repaid for their time during a shutdown, but there is no obligation to repay. As a for instance, pay day is next week for the last two weeks, but if we're still shutdown the finance office won't be sending checks. There is a whole list of things we shouldn't be doing anymore, including no outreach, no media interviews, limited social media to forecast only (no educational or informative posts), no preventative maintenance, no tours. And all leave is cancelled (vacation or sick leave). If you want to placed into furlough status instead (if you had a planned vacation or had a medical emergency) you run the risk of not being paid at all for the time off (even if you've earned that vacation or sick leave). The whole thing sucks. After 2013 I've made sure I have enough in the bank to get by on a shutdown, but with two mortgages this month, moving to a new house, and a pregnant wife I would prefer this not linger. Yeah you’ll get paid it just sux that u don’t know when. They realize the harm they do and make sure they pay people even those furloughed. Some folks I work with will be furloughed which will be like paid vacation. They just dont know when the chrck will come. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RUNNAWAYICEBERG Posted January 20, 2018 Share Posted January 20, 2018 govt workers will be fine. They do very well for themselves, and those pensions....retirement is sweet with that extra cash in the bank. Nobody has it better in the private sector with a comparable salary.

dendrite Posted January 20, 2018 Share Posted January 20, 2018 Spilled some antifreeze in the dirt driveway when draining my radiator today. What’s the best way to minimize the possible effects on my chickens if they start eating the small rocks and sand? Dig up the top layer and then run the hose over the area to dilute it? I usually do that in the garage, but I wanted some sun warmth on my hands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd probably lay a piece of plastic/plywood over it until the ground thaws enough to dig it out, then replace with clean dirt. Or maybe grab a couple bags of coarse stone (stuff too big for them to eat) at Home Depot and bury the spot until spring when you can dig it out better. Just be sure to mark the spot when it snows so you don't wreck your snowblower. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I’ll dig up the area a couple of inches, do what you said, and then fill the hole in with something like Scott suggested...then maybe pour more IA over that just to keep them away. But who knows...they like to eat sheetrock, the styrofoam insulation in my garage door, and the vinyl flooring in their coop, but they won’t touch swiss chard. So maybe they’d find the alcohol appetizing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody has it better in the private sector with a comparable salary. that's the thing for technical (science and engineering) disciplines it's hard for the gov't to compete with private sector salaries especially for new professionals so they use benefits and other perks (mobility etc.) to attract candidates.
