furlousis 

An abnormal condition of the mind resulting in a loss of contact with reality brought upon by the announcement of impending furloughs. A merging of the words psychosis and furlough. Usually experienced by government employees during a time of sequestration.

Bob's mail hasn't been delivered in two days due to the workers at the post office suffering from severe cases of furlousis.

For a government employee, George was getting a lot of work done until his furlousis started acting up.

Furloughism

Movement or belief that supports the upcoming furlough and embraces all that it has to offer. Some of its wonderful offerings consist of but are not limited to, lots of time off if you are a federal employee and the joy of watching those people panic who thought life was a joke and spent every cent they made instead of saving some.

Person A – Boy this furlough is great. I am going golfing tomorrow, gonna day drink tomorrow and get sloppy drunk, and then be hungover the following day and do nothing except eat and scratch my balls.

Person B – Yeah, this is the life bro. And how about those scumbag losers who are at the food kitchen. Hahaha. I bet they are happy they got the iPhone4, those 300 dollar shoes, and that new Mercedes! God bless furloughism!

furlough time 

Time spent at work doing absolutely nothing work related, to make up for the furlough day the company gave you to save money due to poor financial management.

Bob: Jim, you've been goofing off all day, what gives?"

Jim: "I'm taking my furlough time. I've got four more hours to spend tomorrow."

I've been Furlonteering for UN Women - it's been great to keep a purpose whilst on furlough and make a difference! Have you registered as a Furlonteer?
