Government workers, especially ATC, should just walk out on their jobs now.

    Of course they’ll pay their fucking stormtroopers. Throw more sandwiches at these fucking fascists. Real govt employees deserve pay.

        Unfortunately then federal government has passed laws about this. An organized walk out would be considered a strike and illegal for federal employees. This administration would put them in prison.

        Otherwise if it’s unorganized it’s a fireable offense and they will lose their jobs.

        Something similar happened with air traffic controllers in the 80s. They were all fired and the military filled their jobs until new employees were brought on.

        So for these employees they can either lose their jobs, go to prison, or work temporarily without pay (they will be paid once a budget is passed).

        It’s not a great situation
