So, are they open or not? It's not clear to me.
California Furlough Friday Schedule
Due to the California state budget crisis, the governor has mandated required days off with no pay for almost all state workers which are nicknamed "Furlough Fridays." This program started in January 2009. According to the Department of Personnel Administration (DPA), the exceptions include CHP officers (but not CHP staff), EDD unemployment office phone staff, state parks, and CalFire firefighters.
Generally, this means state prisons, state hospitals, and other 24-hour operations will remain open during holidays and Furlough Fridays. Most other offices will close on Furlough Fridays including DMV and state courts. The state university system (UC and CSU) will follow their own customized furlough schedule.
Scheduled Furlough Fridays in calendar year 2010:
* January 8, 15, 22
* February 5, 12, 19
* March 5, 12, 19
* April 2, 9, 16
* May 7, 14, 21
* June 4,11, 18
Cities and counties are not subject to the state furlough schedule, although they may have their own furlough schedule due to their own budget difficulties.
