This reminds me of this idiot manager we had at work once. He said he was going to lean on our vendors to get better prices. What ended up happening was the vendors one by one decided it wasn’t worth it until only one was left, they realized they had a monopoly and doubled their prices every quarter for the next 3 quarters. This is the problem with idiots who have never had a real job, they don’t understand how regular people think or what their motivations are.
Damn don’t take away some of their nothing.
He will probably authorize their back pay and then steal it. Why not, he gets away with literally anything.
I’m legitimately surprised every single day that he doesn’t invent the only 100 Trillion dollar bill.
Question: Who is he happy with?
Answer: Underage girls.
Solution: Release the Epstein files.
Epstein files? Never heard of em.
OH YOU MEAN THE TRUMP FILES, gotcha
You can’t dock with girls, duh
I’m fairly certain I dock with my wife… If you know what I mean.
So trump certainly docked with girls.

Um, unless your wife is trans…
Fair enough.
Solution: Release the Epstein files.
While I agree with you, at this point, do we really think it will be any kind of solution? Do we really think any consequence will actually come from it even if we have explicit evidence?
At this point, the fukkin Epstein files are the distraction. They are emptying out our coffers and dashing our world reputation to the rocks and gutting our most basic social services to keep us alive and healthy and have ended programs that would have otherwise kept millions of people alive around the world. They are doing things that will literally lead to the death and suffering of millions and millions of human beings.
Why the shitty AI image?
not an air traffic controller but I assume it’s a pretty high demand job. would be a shame if all controllers started a general strike and froze air traffic for weeks just to prove a point.
not like this administration could entice anyone outside the US to work in this shithole anyway.
what’s the worst they’ll do? chain you to the desk and make you work at gunpoi-- yeah… they’d probably do that…
They went on strike in the Reagan era and then got fired and replaced.
“I know, we’ll replace them with AI!”
✈️💥
then got fired and replaced.
From what i’ve heard the numbers never actually came back. All of them got fired but only some of them got replaced. I suspect most current ATC’s know this. Nobody is gonna want to work that thankless job if the fed is firing everybody because they wont resolve the poor working conditions every few decades.
And Reagan made it illegal for them to strike ever again.
They didn’t just get fired.
They were black listed from ALL federal government positions. That includes being an Air Traffic Controller. Now Bill Clinton eventually lifted the ban but that took 12 years and even then - very very few were hired back.
may have worked then, but I doubt it will work this time.
I’m not american but I think “the worse they can do” is the issue here, they introduced laws allowing atc to be imprisoned if they strike. Their options really are limited to claiming to be unwell
could just quit.
“sorry, I’ve decided to a change in careers is beneficial to my health.”
Good idea, I read somewhere that’s happening already with normal resignations being 1-2/day being closer to 20/day
that’s impressive tbh. with numbers like that though it would take almost two years for a collapse to happen.
Mid air collisions will happen much sooner than that.
what’s the worst they’ll do? chain you to the desk and make you work at gunpoi-- yeah… they’d probably do that…
Yeah, he probably would. Luckily He doesn’t have enough ICE agents to do that. And as ICE is his only personal army, that’s the force he’d have to use.
In other words, he’s all talk, he’s out of cards to play here.
Ugh, three more years of this shit. I dont want to age faster, but fuck me, Ill happily speed run this just to never hear about this cunt again.
He hates to be told no. Everyone hear that? The word no really irritate trump.
Basic dictator.
Fuck that guy
Those ATC guys should really consider forming a union…
America is developing a long, weird, disappointing history of hating on air traffic controllers. Wild move singling out such a small field of people who have such massively important roles in managing not just our travelers but all of our air-shipped goods and products.
In what is a highly trained, extremely stressful job with more direct responsibility than a typical cardiologist. But we value people who shuffle papers on Wall Street 20-2000x more.
Just wait for Musk to offer an AI solution.
Rich people just dont like being told no. The rich want to fly, and they are absolutely livid that the poors are saying no.
Honestly, any institution/profession with any altruism America sort of takes personally.
Art of the deal
Fart on the meal
🦭💨
Anybody whose dealt with trump can tell you he’s hardest on the people that don’t fight him. If air traffic controllers don’t make a stand he’s going to fuck them over hard.
Air Traffic Control is undermaned. They have some of the crazies requirements to getting a job and forced retirement. All this was due to Reagen in 1981. That ws 44 years ago and we still haven’t fixed this damage. Add the increased influence by private companies and I will be driving or walking everywhere.
Idk if you live near the borders but flying out of canada is an option for some people
Yeah but not a real option to most people.
Basic capitalism, Donnie: you pay, people work. You don’t pay, people don’t work.
That’s not true. I have a friend, he’s a really good guy, has a weird haircut though, haha, but a good guy, it’s true. Kim. Kim. A guy called Kim, can you believe it? I call him rocket man. He’s really smart. Not as smart as me, but almost. He is very successful in running his country, it’s called North Korea, have you heard of it? Korea, I love to say the word Korea. Lovely place he has. Kim is so smart, he has people working for him for free, and everyone is happy he tells me. They all love him so much, just like everyone loves me, it’s true. I love talking to him, he is very, how do you day this, inspirational. What he can do, I can do too, but better because I’m smarter of course. Everyone knows that.

When he gets upset, he’s playing his hand. I hope the call-outs completely fuck up the holiday flights so he continues to feel the heat from it.
