furloughded

The drinking that ensues as a result of the depression created when state employees are sent home for monthly mandated days off without pay. Said drinking results in a condition known as being “furloughded” and brings with it temporary numbness and a feeling of euphoria. This condition is common in California and Washington State, other states are expected to follow.

Furloughtude 

The unique attitude developed by federal workers once they’ve been notified that they will be furloughed, due to government sequester.

Given that furloughed employees are forced to take one-day/week unpaid leave, those afflicted with furloughtude care 80% as much about their job as they did before the furlough.

Typically, those stricken with furloughtude develop the malady because they have been told that the nature of their work is considered ‘non-essential’.
The director has a serious case of furloughtude.

Noun. Portmanteau of "street" and "road": it describes a street, er, road, built for high speed, but with multiple access points. Excessive width is a common feature. A common feature in suburbia, especially along commercial strips. Unsafe at any speed, their extreme width and straightness paradoxically induces speeding. Somewhat more neutral than synonymous traffic sewer.
