I am not questioning the return of back pay for government employees after the recent shutdown. I think that the employees deserve to get their back pay. I just wonder why when teachers or other professionals are furloughed they do not ever get their back pay.
Isn't it stupid that the government shutdown was a vacation for the employees? I do realize that they had to wait it out and this may cause them to have a financial set back, but they are getting pay for not working.
I looked up the definition of the word furlough and of course it means something different for the military, but it indicates temporary layoffs in the civilian workforce.
Isn't it ridiculous that the government shut down stopped people from working and then paid them back? Think about how far behind they are at their jobs. It is just another stupid offshoot from our elected officials.
