July 1st. The beginning of the next fiscal year and a budget impasse is officially still in effect =/ What next? A three-day non self directed furlough (冇薪假期) - meaning every 1st, 2nd and 3rd Friday of the month our office will be closed until June 2010. I guess it will be nice getting 3-day weekends but I just feel sorry for those ppl whose state salary is their sole source of income. Aiieee. Arnold better watch his back x 200,000 ><
First official day of work as a staff services analyst (SSA) as well. I didn't expect much and I was right. Michelle had no work for me and neither did Josh. I kept refreshing sacbee.com in hopes of reading updated news regarding the governor's final decision. Alas, the agency's director sends us a letter with the details of the furlough decision that begins next Friday July 10. Some people are being forced into early retirement b/c of this and others feel the pressure to find a second job. Hard times. Very hard. Lucky for me it's just the beginning.
Evelyn retired today after 25 years of working for the state - all which were at DMV. Her party was real nice. Food came first, then the program. It was short and sweet just the way she wanted it. Tiramisu had a little too much alkie in it too... rawr! ahahaa
Mommy had plans with her friend for dinner so moi, dad and I ended up eating sushi earlier... yum yum. My tummy still isn't back to normal though. Is it really time to crack open that bottle of 正露丸?!! NoooOOoo =/
