Same type of people are working everywhere in government. From the USDA, NASA, the CDC etc.

obviously no one planned this shut down very well.

It is amazing that it took this long to figure this out.whine about it

Especially the CDC who only had one job to do and apparently is massively over-funded based on results.

Shills gonna shill. We see inconvenience and suffering, they see career making wagon-hitching opportunities.

IRL, I'm dealing with one of these fucks on a project. I pegged him as a fuck about 9 months ago and have started laying in plans to work around said fuck.

It may be shocking but within the government maze, there are non-fucks who actually despise the fucks. The trick is to find the non-fucks and they will move mountains to fuck over the fucks.

Agree - some very fine people are working for the government. But they can only do so much. Had a guy who worked for the Oregon Corporations Division which hands out dba's and registers business names. He was incapable of the most basic tasks. If I called the Division and he answered the phone I immediately hung up and re-dialed until I got someone else.

That is really unfortunate. While apparently everyone is pissing and moaning political points, this is the kind of shit we cant have happening.
