Or just don’t show up to work, and start looking for another job.

What they gonna do? Shoot you for “being sick and unable to report to work”?

Message for Government Employees: If you work a government job, DON’T GO TO WORK WHEN THE GOVERNMENT IS SHUT DOWN. Fuck that BS, don’t let the government treat you like a slave. Calling out from work is not a crime (even if it is, fuck them anyways).

All TSA agents should strike at the same time those days, wearing green hats and fake mustaches

Nothing would change, the TSA does nothing but harass lawful citizens.

Yeah lol, people would probably have a great travel experience and want to make it permanent. Strikes only work if your job is important to someone, otherwise they work against you

Disruption is the point of striking.

Have you met them? They’re basically otherwise unemployable.

Meh, I’m sure their local police force, who are toally well trained and organized and not filled with overweight people, would gladly accept them, just look at what the average cop looks like. These TSA agents will fit right in.

(Not that I want there to be more cops, but sadly thats where these people will end up. 🤷‍♂️)

The comment about weight was unnecessary, even though I broadly agree with the message.

I have a friend who is a TSA agent and he’s a lovely and intelligent person. He took the job because it was the best thing available to him and federal jobs (usually) come with very good benefits and health coverage. He hadn’t seen a doctor for about 6 years before he got the job because his insurance and PTO was so terrible at his last job.

Yeah, there’s always some exception. Hope your friend is doing well.

So far they’ve gotten paid every time, just late.

So far…

If my job ever skips a check I’m not coming back until I get it. Fuck that. Everyone not getting paid because of this should stay home and let chaos happen. Cause some real consequences to Musk and the rest of them.

Go to work and do nothing but look for a new job on your phone. What are they gonna do, not pay you anymore?
