pennyfournasa:As the government shutdown continues on unresolved, the effects of the people who are unable to get to work are becoming more and more obvious.

However, some of the employees furloughed weren’t even full time, but interns.Interns at NASA Ames Research Center were not only left with no work to go to, but were also evicted from the dorms housing them.
