Happy Furlough Friday!
For this week's episode of Furlough Friday, I thought you might enjoy reading a quote from Our Governor in an article that ran just after his second (yes-I said second! Who voted for him a second time???? THOSE are the people who should be furloughed...) inauguration.
"The governor harkened back to the dismal year he had in 2005 when his clash with the state's public employee unions cut his approval rating in half and led to a trouncing at the polls during his special election. Using a religious metaphor, he said the debacle had awakened him to a new way of doing business.
"Like Paul on the road to Damascus, I had an experience that opened my eyes," he said to laughter among the crowd. 'And what was it that I saw? I saw that people, not just in California, but across the nation, were hungry for a new kind of politics, a politics that looks beyond the old labels, the old ways, the old arguments.' "
New? His current plan is new compared to 2005, how?

Enjoy your day....but don't go spending money! Let the state feel a day without the state worker.
