Right after I finished this up and was about to hit publish new instructions were issued from our Operations Director. Essentially we are not allowed to talk, post, etc. on social media about anything in relation to the government shutdown as it is now a fire able offense. Since I journal anyways I will continue to write posts and just save them until the shutdown is over and then publish the adventure that was the shutdown. I apologize for this I planned on taking yall along on this adventure but I dont want to give anyone a reason to fire me.

In the meantime feel free to ask questions here and I will do my best to answer them or point you in the correct direction.
