An additional 22 percent would only be able to last about a month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Some feds missed mortgage or rent payments because of the shutdown.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cMore than eight percent of respondents say they missed a mortgage payment and over seven percent missed a rent payment \u2014 further evidence that many federal workers are living paycheck to paycheck,\u201d the survey said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And approximately a third of employees resorted to gig employment through ride-sharing services or online freelancing during the shutdown to make ends meet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cHistorically, government jobs have been thought of as stable and safe, relative to the private sector. However, it seems that for some federal workers, the shutdown has shattered their sense of security. Many of them are either actively seeking or considering alternative employment opportunities,\u201d the survey said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Five percent of respondents said they had already quit or were planning to quit their jobs, while 10 percent were actively looking for a new place to work and 15 percent were considering doing so.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Many federal employees had to dip into savings, take out loans or find a temporary job to make it through the month-long government
