Hey, thanks for asking!
I tried to watch the new installment of. Only Murderers in the Building but >Disney+ is now broken in any way I could access it. It throws an error and >says you arenrCOt allowed to cast the program from your phone to your TV >anymore. So I guess IrCOm just done watching the series.
I did turn to the gray to watch the series 19 premiere of Murdoch
Mysteries. They spent the episode getting the team back together and
battling the evil mayor and city Council. Honestly, I donrCOt know why >Murdoch and BreckenReid didnrCOt just move to England.
I also watched several episodes of a Canadian series Tubi recommended, THE >LISTENER about an EMT who can read minds. It has a very high babe quotient, >most of whom IrCOve never seen before although once in a while, you get a gem >like Sarah Power. From the creator of Murdoch Mysteries.

How would that be remotely legal? You can't force people to work for free. If
you're forcing them to keep working during the shutdown, they're legally
entitled to be compensated for that work.
I heard a news report this morning that Vought is pushing for language
in legislation in which furloughed worked would not be paid for the
furlough. In past government shutdowns, furloughed government employees
were paid for their furlough days which is discriminatory treatment.
I've heard nothing that workers required to report to work without pay
won't eventually receive makeup pay.
That's always been bullshit that workers not required to work during the shutdown were paid for not working while others were required to work
without pay. The president might as well declare everybody essential and force them to work without pay, for later compensation.
Vought just wants everybody on furlough to quit.
