I was affected for about 6 hours, then I had to report for duty the next day. When you are furloughed they make you come into work the next morning anyway. You have 4 hours to shut down, return your government equipment, and sign your paperwork. Our office is preparing for another potential shut down in a few weeks. So much so we have been instructed to pull the plug on all previously scheduled work engagements.

I sometimes serve court papers for both civil and criminal Federal cases. But normally I turn down those jobs, as I seldom make a profit at them, and they are always a super-PITA. [ I did once work as a Spanish translator for a defense team of some narco gangsters from south of the border. But they apparently found someone else after a few hours of translation work. And I forgot, that I visited them all in Federal prison, and did not mention that in my prison story last week. ] I was thinking earlier of camping tonight ( Saturday ) at an Army Corps park at Lake Somerville. I have a 36 hour window to frolick ( till Monday afternoon ), and I have a bed in the back of my Sequioa and a 1/2 tank of gas. So can't go too far from Brenham.
