I work for a very large company that electronically processes millions of transactions a week. I wonder what our customers would think if we told them one day that they couldn't access our systems to input their payroll because of a "glitch".

No, I'd rather not think about it.

Ho hum. Nothing new to see here. Let's move along.

No problems reported in my state, Mike. The website is up and running nicely.

Let him have his only joy in life. No more Obamascare tactics, Teabaggers shut down Gov't for no valid reason and the stock market went up a little not down lol.

A bit OT here, but why does the glass have to be half empty or half full? Why can't it just be half a glass?

Carry on...

Dude, didn't you know that it is against the rules to actually think about a figure of speech.

But your company's budget does not get jerked around or workers furloughed by the US Congress. Nor can it get shut down by an act of congress. Not a very good analogy.
