[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Expect more delays at the airports. Air traffic controllers have an uptick in sick calls. They are being asked to work without pay, and some are saying I don’t think so, that’s what sick leave is for. https://apple.news/AkwTPiIY5TO2f-S2bo2H2wA[/quote]

I flew into Dulles around the time of the shift change of the TSA workers and they were discussing where to go for a hot meal at a soup kitchen since they're not getting paid.  Disgraceful America--to treat its employees this way.[/quote]

Aren’t all federal employees going to get paid around mid October for the pay period that ended just before the shutdown?[/quote]

Yeah.  Nobody has missed a paycheck yet.  The TSA probably is demoralized, and they may be concerned that they need to hold onto that next paycheck for expenses when the one following is missed.  Maybe some also get SNAP?  But talk of soup kitchens at this point is probably gallows humor.[/quote]
SNAP? What’s that?[/quote]
