Happy King County Furlough Day Number Six

Today marks the sixth of ten furlough days that major King County buildings and facilities will be shut down, requiring eligible County employees to take an unpaid day off. It's all due to those pesky budgetary issues the County has to face. Emergency service 911 is on call, buses are working, wastewater treatment plants are flushing (?), and don't get your hopes up if you have jury duty or a scheduled court date today. King County's website notes that the Courthouse and its many district courts will still be open bright and early.
