Re[2]: furlough

     Yes, the furlough is hard on those involved. I don't really believe 
     any of the comments have been serious or "hate" based, do you??? I 
     don't think a little humor harms anyone. If this furlough goes like 
     all the ones in the past, Congress will vote to pay every furloughed 
     worker back pay for the time they were off. I could certainly use some 
     more paid vacation, even with some added stress.

          The government furlough is hard enough to endure and one 
          would expect comments like those I have seen posted on 
          radsafe to appear on "hate" radio talk shows.
     
          The furlough is a political game, and federal workers are 
          being used as pawns.  I do not think radsafe is a forum to 
          make such comments as those that I have seen recently and 
          especially from someone as well respected (or was well 
          respected by me) as Dr. Vetter.
     
          I believe that radsafe should stick to what it does best -  
          serve as a forum for radiological information exchange, not 
          as a forum for "bashing" federal workers.  I am really ashamed 
          to be part of such a community!

 It makes a big difference in mail volume, doesn't it. Perhaps we should 
 consider a proposal to permanently furlough some govt. radiation divisions.
     
 I will be meeting with the Texas Panhandle Chapter Feb 21 in Amarillo and
the
 North Texas Chapter Feb 22 in Dallas. Are you planning to attend one or
both
 meetings?
