I see my Federal Job as a priviledge given to me by the tax payer, and to be frank Chas and yourself and everyone else here make my life way too easy by paying your taxes that keep me afloat

I do get upset that forces beyond my control can threaten my future but then I realize that everyone else on this board live with this fear constantly in the private sector so I have been acting like a big baby.

But I do hate this shut down and the really danger precedents it is setting.
How did Mencken put it?

"There is no man, who hasn't considered spitting on his hands, raising the black flag and beginning to slit throats."

It's just a natural reaction to the collective insanity of the homo sapiens.

Everybody gets pissed off from time to time.

I wouldn't get too down on myself. If you don't have a little fire in your belly, you ain't worth knocking in the head.
