This article was a good example of the trickle down effect that a government shutdown could going to have on the workforce. Specifically they mention a firm that is contracted to provide IT services for government offices throughout Washington D.C. It speaks of the uncertainty of when and if they will have work for the government, and how it's impacting this particular company's projected business.
The article was interesting, but a government shutdown is going to affect everybody-not just a contractor that works directly within the government. It would be wise for this firm to outbranch their customers a bit, so they don't have all their eggs in one basket. So that in the event of a government shutdown their business can continue at some capacity-until the government can figure things out and come back into session.
