I am a federal worker and that is not what I'm being told. After some previous shutdowns Congress has authorized back pay for furloughed employees. But today's congress is nothing like prior ones and nothing says this is going to happen this time around. Also, with sequestration still in place for FY2014, I would not be surprised if it becomes a matter of taking the days without pay now or sacrificing the same in days off without pay during 2014. I fear it may even be both.
