I’m FAA Air traffic control. I’m working, and I should get paid. Change my mind.

Although I had people on here tell me during the shutdown that I should just stomach not getting paid and eat up my savings and be happy about it.

Why are State and Federal employees be a protected class? Why shouldn't they be affected like the rest of us? Why shouldn't State and Federal employees be affected by Politician's decisions. I get it's not their fault but it's our fault either. Again, Why shouldn't they be affected like the rest of us?


Because setting the whole house on fire doesn't make sense.

Instead how about not setting the house on fire...period.

The govt shouldn't be telling private business that they have to close...period!

So you get paid. Maybe you should be forced to not work like a lot of others.


So if you hurt, everyone should hurt?

And someone working in the private sector made the decision to do so as well.

It makes me sick to think of those scummy bureaucrats: enlisted troops in the military, state troopers, janitors, security guards, and more. You’re brave for willing to speak the truth and show these parasites for what they are!

This would be a fun experiment. How many hours would the Interstate stay open without crews moving turned over trucks?
