Refresh is my friend....although I don't really think I will draw anything good, I have some friends in the chips pretty well and I'm fired up to hear if they drew.

They are not working today.
Yes they are.
It's not a furlough day anymore.
They reached the amount of money they needed to save via furlough days and reinstated today as a work day.

Just because they are present and clocked in, doesn't mean they are working. I bet they are all sitting at their computers watching this very conversation and laughing at most of us.

Published June 09, 2011
Last furlough for state employees is this Friday
BRAD SHANNON; Staff writer
Washington’s year-old experiment with laying off workers a day at a time to save money is almost done. Friday is the last of 10 scheduled furlough days for agencies covered by 2010 legislation, which saves $73 million from all state budgets through June 30. It will lead to some closures near the state Capitol. About 20 agencies are closing – far fewer than the roughly 50 agencies, boards or commissions that have been idled by past closures. The closures will mean less activity around the Capitol Campus, minimal maintenance and custodial work, no mail service, and closure of a cafe in the General Administration Building.
The 20 agencies and entities that must close Friday to meet cost-saving goals are: Board of Accountancy, Commission on African-American Affairs, Agriculture, Commerce, Conservation Commission, Criminal Justice Training Commission, Eastern Historical Society (closing Monday), Fish and Wildlife, General Administration, Higher Education Coordinating Board, Human Rights Commission, Indeterminate Sentence Review Board, Information Services, Office of Minority and Women’s Business Enterprises, Personnel, Printing, Puget Sound Partnership, Department of Services for the Blind, Board of Tax Appeals, Traffic Safety Commission, Transportation Commission.
Senate Bill 6503, which enacted the furloughs, had exemptions for public-safety services. These include “child protection workers, community corrections officers, emergency public health and patient safety workers, and the Washington State Patrol,” according to the Office of Financial Management.
State workers are far from out of the woods financially with the end of furloughs. Most face higher medical insurance premiums in 2012, higher pension contribution rates and other costs.
Most in the general-government work force also faces a 3 percent cut in their rates of pay starting July 1 but get about 5.6 hours a month off in “prepaid” leave in return. In effect, this means most will work 3 percent less and get 3 percent less overall in their twice-monthly pay checks.
Some retirees also lose automatic cost-of-living-pay increases, and five agencies are undergoing major consolidations.

Outdoor central does the drawing and they are working..... the look of results page just changed.. still says "Draw not run yet" but the format has chaged :dunno:
How did it change? I don't notice any difference. Not saying it didn't, I'm just not seeing it.

Early this morning (and every other day I checked) it showed my all of my history on one page, with 2011 showing as not run yet. Now when I check, it shows only 2011 info. Probably does not mean anything, but it is different at least from my computer. :dunno:
You're just using a different link. The one that shows all the history is where you go to submit your applications, also known as the "back door". The other one is just for checking this year's results.

Must be your computer. I'm still getting "draw not run yet" and I've tried several times since you posted about the error page.

When you see 10 or more new posts suddenly listed with some of the following words in the post title, you'll have reason to believe the draw is complete:
Draw results...
...permit for me!!!!
Front door...

Don't forget the "Need help" or "I got drawn and have never been there before" or "can someone point me in the right direction." :chuckle: Not like I have done that before.... ;)

Did you actually think they would work today? I have a family member at F&W that was furloughed.
Someone posted on huntfishnw that this was not a furlough day anymore. Thats why I thought it wasn't after Bobcat informed me it was prior to that. I shoulda just stuck with Bob.

Well.......I wouldn't have stuck with Bob. :chuckle:
It is not really that simple and I can see how some would get confused.
Most agencies have come up with enough savings to actually work, but some agencies as a whole are still furloughed and some cases only parts of the agencies are furloughed. We got to work, but some of the agencies that we deal with on a daily basis were shut down in part or full.

I just saw over on ifish that someone posted that he heard from someone "in the know" that their results will be posted Monday morning. If that's true, hopefully our results will be soon after. (maybe even the same day) :dunno:
What state are they talking about?

Oregon. And it seems like Oregon's results are always before ours. And of course Outdoor Central does both states. So it makes me wonder if they don't push the Washington button until after the Oregon draw is done.At east Oregon's general season over on this side is a week earlier than ours, maybe the reason for them first. :dunno:

Thats because Gergoire pissed outdoor central off. I blame everything on that Bi***
