Soon all federal employees including, DODEA School Teachers, Overseas DOD Civilian Employees, non-appropriated fund employees, commissary employees, DOD support staff, etc... will be furloughed for 22 days. This results in a significant pay-cut to a workforce that has already had a three year pay freeze. We continue to be penalized even though we work hard and do our jobs simply because we are department of defense employees. If DOD employees have to be furloughed and military dependents will have to loose services and benefits due to the debacle created by leadership in Washington - then the folks who created this mess for the rest of us should have to worry about pending cuts without explanation or regard also.
