I’m going to guess around feb 15. tsp is going to gently caress off after having to deal with super bowl assholes and missing another two pay checks.

I for one am happy to be wrong, I got old friends at NIST who will now be able to get back to doing stuff.

Come on, y'all got another shutdown to celebrate to/jerk off on in three weeks.

Time to see how much poo poo got hosed up in over a month of shutdown.

Computers that aren't logged into in over 30 days fall off the domain for security reasons. That, coupled with the logical access system and full disk encryption, means we may have to make individual 30+ minute tech visits to 15,000 workstations just so people can log in.

Yay.

I fired up my govt phone to check email a couple days ago. So many ticket notifications for "domain not available" and "trust relationship" errors.

God I hope I get one of the jobs I interviewed for while furloughed.

Oh, right. Sorry, everyone! I had one job and I failed at it, but I'll get it right next time.

Edit: USA Today said "shutdown expected to end today" yesterday, and Washington, DC local news outlet WTOP said "Generally, furloughed employees are expected to return to their duty stations and resume their normal work schedules. Employees who typically start their work week on Monday, for example, would be expected to return Jan. 28". It's still unclear to me when exactly the government should be said to re-open, but I suppose there may have been employees scheduled for a Friday night shift, so it may be the 25th. Maybe there'll be more information coming out by Monday.

im not a lawyer but OMB guidance got put out last night: https://www.whitehouse.gov/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/M-19-09.pdf



i think after this the various agencies do things and open poo poo up, for example here's the thing from the park service which basically says itll vary on a park by park basis:

https://www.nps.gov/orgs/1207/lapseend.htm

e.g. these coupla parks are opening up tomorrow, but i think something else i saw said the smithsonian wont open till tuesday

https://wset.com/news/local/local-national-parks-reopen-as-government-shutdown-comes-to-a-close

i'd say it ended yesterday, since unless you can find out whether the first dude at the first office to re-open showed up before or after midnight i doubt you'll find a better marker

Everyone who made a wrong guess before the day of the start of the next shutdown can pick a new date. For the dates afterward, I'll go with a system of re-using the old dates as a default, unless there may be people would rather start each shutdown pool with a system of starting with a clean slate each time, though. If there are people wanting both, we could do a thread poll.
