    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).

          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

            I’m gonna guess that the airports will shut down in the US if TSA is not available. They’re not just gonna let people through without any security in place.

              They let people through unscreened on holidays. I let them buy me out of my ticket on a long weekend once and flying the next day was so nice. A few dozen of us were just waved past security and right to the gate. Just had to show we had a boarding pass. This was at a big Texas airport too.

            They are legally not allowed to strike. They would be fired immediately for dereliction of their position. It’s part of the negotiation when they take a federal job.

              If the government is going to be derelect in its duty to pay its workers, then workers can do the same to their positions.

              Though I would be looking for another job and quit without notice when one is found in this case. Fuck Musk. No one voted for his ass.

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

        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.
