They get 100% of their back pay. They get paid every penny. They just have to wait until these idiot demo rats figure out they’re like A.C. They ain’t in charge no mo.

Seems like if the government could open back up things would be different.


Yeah, maybe if the Demo rats cared as much for the working man as they pretend to, they would sign off on the CR. But they don’t and they’re all absolute shitbags who only care about their own power and deserve an ice pick behind the ear like Morty.

I personally would love the government to shut down permanently.

As long as it takes the Democrats to pull their heads out of their asses. We ain't funding fricking illegals, get over it.

frickers will get back pay.


Maybe. But when? That’s not going to help them pay bills that are due today

Only those who show up for all shifts be entitled to back pay.


Or maybe they have PTO. If not, yes don’t pay them for missed shifts.

I wonder how many of them drive Uber today to try to bring in some cash to pay bills.

Unless someone can't qualify for TSA Pre I don't understand why everyone doesn't sign up. Glad they don't though, Pre is getting crowded enough already.

Hell, I'd pay $117 to fly twice a year to avoid the cattle line and all the disrobing and unpacking, etc.

I swear to Christ it seems like there has been massive construction there for at least the last 17 or 18 years, since I was a Continental frequent flyer before they merged w/United.. im not even kidding .


I think there has been.

I used to also, but having lived here many, many years, I just realized this week I have had it with the traffic! It keeps getting worse and worse with no answers in sight! Between construction delays and the City of Houston protecting certain community areas from any changes, because of so-called historic connections, taxpayers and workers suffer!!

I don’t work for free or to be paid at some nebulous later date and neither should they. Don’t blame them, blame the retard insider traders in Washington who refuse to act in good faith

Its a cluster.... As of this evening, it takes over 2hrs just to get in the doors of Terminal E. Thats not even getting to the actual security checkpoint.

Sounds like United is telling people in line that Pre/Clear are shutdown at this point, but in reading, it was up earlier today and was still around 30m for Pre

Can you bring a chicken or goat onboard now that this is officially 3rd world status?

Flew in on Thursday.... got in 30 minutes early. At baggage claim #10, it took 30 minutes to get the first 10 baggage, then 10 minutes later 10 more, and so on... lots of pissed off folks letting United have it. They were having a barbecue and taco party for their workers on the tarmac by gate C1... probably reason why my bags were so late.

I’m happy I’m missing this shite show. I don’t have anything until December. Hopefully it’s done by then.

So, you're either a "Demo rat" or you're bipolar.
