But now all of us can get back on the job. I woke up to an e-mail with the <a href="http://www.opm.gov/policy-data-oversight/snow-dismissal-procedures/current-status/">official notice</a> from OPM (Office of Personnel Management, the uber-Human Resources agency for all the federal workers):</p> <blockquote> <b style="color:#007700;">Federal Government<br /><br /> Applies to: October 17, 2013<br /> Status: Open</b><br /><br /> <span style="color:#006600;"><b>Open.</b> Employees are expected to return for work on their next regularly scheduled work day (Thursday, October 17th for most employees), absent other instructions from their employing agencies.</span><br /><br /> Due to the enactment of a continuing resolution, Federal government operations are open. Employees are expected to return for work on their next regularly scheduled work day (Thursday, October 17th for most employees) ... .</blockquote> <p> \o/</p> <p> <i><b>What a huge relief!!!</b></i></p><br /><br /><img src="https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=chomiji&ditemid=450579" width="30" height="12" alt="comment count unavailable" style="vertical-align: middle;"/> comments tag:dreamwidth.org,2010-09-03:578263:398647 2013-03-06T14:03:05Z 2013-03-06T14:03:05Z listless public 4 <p> It's snowing, big huge snowflakes that are only supposed to get thicker. The local press have dubbed the storm Snowquester, which looks to me like the name of a teenaged superhero who has a rocket-powered snowboard or something.</p> <p> Of course they are riffing off the subject of the government funding sequester, which is another thing that DO NOT WANT. When you're part of the "company town" that is Washington DC (with the federal government as the company), things like this are more personal than political.</p><br /><br /><img src="https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=chomiji&ditemid=398647" width="30" height="12" alt="comment count unavailable" style="vertical-align: middle;"/> comments tag:dreamwidth.org,2010-09-03:578263:346736 2012-06-13T01:43:05Z 2012-06-13T01:43:05Z aggravated public 4 <p> The good news was the my stress echocardiogram was fine and so was my blood pressure.</p> <p> The bad news was that my work computer died on me at the end of the day, just before I could finish something that needed to be ready for my early-shift colleague in the morning.</p><br /><br /><img src="https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=chomiji&ditemid=346736" width="30" height="12" alt="comment count unavailable" style="vertical-align: middle;"/> comments
