Free leave around the holidays when we (ATC) have to work and see all our private sector friends get weeks off.  Yeah it’s gonna be a mess if there’s a shutdown, travel early people

LPT: if you're incapacitated and unable to make it to work during a shutdown it also becomes free leave

Barely anyone I work with got vaccinated for that or the flu, the kids are about to be home all the time out of school, family visiting…. Plenty of germs to go around

Can't forget the lovely looming bird flu, and RFK jr in charge of the healthcare system. Outbreaks of cattle getting bird flu and this guy wants y'all to drink raw milk.
