The engineers do not have to print the copies here. They have people like me who copy and distribute them, after editing their typos and grammatical errors.

You mean there isn't a "Green Team" there to mandate that ALL documents will be default set to copy two-sided in an effort to 'reduce paper consumption and waste?

oh joy, IT WAS A JOKE

BTW, the printers have been set to default to OFF, whne the print job hits the queue it is redirected to a printer that is not connected to the network.

Ok, this is getting serious.

Just heard on the news that if sequestration actually happens, Federal Food inspectors will be sequestered as well.

This means no inspectors for beef, eggs, milk..... etc... If sequestration happens, be prepared for food shortages.

Well, knowing Maryland as I do, it's probably a clause in a book somwhere; along the lines of 'janitorial service providers will/must provide sanitary tissue; or 'bath tissue'; while conducting janitorial services.'
Yeah, redundant, but you get the idea.

Nice, but don't the janitors fall under Maintenance cuts?

Not really.... IF the furlough goes to more than just DOD, they could be out of work ONE DAY a week for 22 wks, just like the rest of us. food inspections will still occur the other 4 days in the week, just like the rest of us will do our jobs 4 days a week. production will definitely slow down, but the work is still going to get done.
