Big whoop:
State worker Lori Sobczak tried to remain optimistic.
"There's frustration," said Sobczak, a two-year Minnesota Department of Transportation employee.
The fear is "the unknown, you know," she said. "Rumors are flying around; [a shutdown] could be, you know, 45-60 days. ... That's scary."
Scary? You don't know scary. Try going two and a half years without a regular paycheck, sister, like seven million other unemployed Americans. That's why your government is shutting down, because we used to pay the taxes that made your job possible in the first place.
If I were you I'd tell my union to cut a deal.
