State law mandates that all state employees temporarily earn minimum wage while there is no budget, until such time as the budget impasse is relieved and a new, balanced budget is produced. At first, none of us thought this would actually happen, but now the university is starting to warn us that it is most likely unavoidable at this point, and that we will probably have to earn minimum wage for at least a month or two. That's going to be really hard for people with families, mortgages, etc....but I guess that goes without saying. Our paychecks for the month will all be about $1000!!!

Zach ... I understand your concern. I have a friend that he and his wife both work at University of California - San Diego. This could really have an effect on them.
BTW, you stated you work at University of California ... which campus - San Francisco or Berkeley?
