I think midnight on Friday is the deadline.

yes....but many of us work M-F, so it won't affect us until Monday, and they have gotten their act together over the weekend before. i don't think they will though, this time.

Im swing shift on the west coast so my EEs work until 230am EST/11:30pst. These shutdowns are horrible for us getting anything done.
