I have never punched a clock in my life. And during any governmnent shutdown, I worked because, unfortunately, the mission doesn't stop over the inability of the Congress to pass a budget.

I'm not unique. I'm sure that there are people in DoD who don't work extra hours without compensation, but mostly they were clerical and administrative staff. Most people don't complain because they believe in the mission. The DoD fosters a "can do" environment. You don't say no, you don't say "I can't", you just get the job done. There isn't a lot of animosity between the military and civilians. We share office space, share the coffee pot, and share the work. So when people get into this military vs. civilian thing, I'm not sure where it comes from. I've certainly never experienced it. Yes, there are ocassional jerks, but that happens everywhere.
Some of my military collegues are life long friends. I'm proud of our military.
But it takes a village to support them.
