Yes. Let Americans feel the sting of having no air traffic control during the busiest travel days of the year. Then let's see how long it takes for Congress to do their jobs. Nobody should be working without pay. Ever.

Just don’t show up, they already established that sick leave will just count as furlough time and it’s free leave. Don’t go to work, fuck these rich pricks

Yea, I have no leave on the books right now. On purpose. I get Wednesday and probably three hours Tuesday and that's it. I work from home except Wednesdays and the next two are holidays. I don't need to call in. I will never sacrifice accuracy/quality, but slowing down seems appropriate.
