Just what the fuck did you think was gonna happen Elonia? Fucking idiot...
Leopard, meet face...

This is intentional. They want to replace everything with their own shitty for-profit systems.

Yeah I'm sure they're just RARING to work for the most publicly toxic boss (that isn't even a boss) in the world...
It's weird to see people all over the place mocking Elmo for this...
Like, he knows no one in their right mind would want to start federal service right now. They treat feds like shit, make wild cuts they know will effect actual essentials. Go on national news and the billion dollar social media websites they own to shit talk fed, even have the head of the DoD call federal workers lazy and a drain on the nation in a public memo for for some reason now comes with a video.
The entire thing isn't just designed to shrink the federal government, but to then replace it with contractors they "manage" and take a huge chunk of the wages from for the privilege of a job for less than feds got and zero worker protections.
Just lining their own pockets in a legal manner because "no one wants to be a fed".
Meanwhile 50% of the country cheers him on, and damn near the rest can't see more than two steps ahead.
Why the fuck haven't people started learning to plan ahead yet?
Or at least read a damn history book. Fascist aren't typically original.
"Look, it's nobody's fault, and we don't know how this happened, but for unforeseeable reasons we have a shortage."
Narrator: It was forseen, they do know how it happened, and it was his fault.
Most of them retire at or near the age they're legally required to retire, they cannot come back. He's either trying to ask for the people he fired to come back without looking like the moron most people see him for or too dumb to realize even that.
10 years salary up front. In gold.
best we can do is crypto and a ket bender with trump's dom
Gold you say?
The back side should be printed with the fucking Kremlin.
No need, there's already a Gremlin on the front
That man should never be on the face of legitimate US currency.

Would love to see the rest of them strike and bring the entire air travel/transport network to its knees.
Rorschach?
Yup!
Ah the move fast and break things doesn't work? I'm shocked, shocked!
Amusing that his Twitter avatar looks like a black hole, considering that's where his abject incompetence is sucking the national infrastructure (and all of us) into.
On this latest debacle: Great idea Musk! Fire a bunch of people from an already stressed-out agency, then watch as a string of accidents happen, and then publication beg for retired controllers to come back.
Pushing tin is an incredibly stressful and intense job. Those who retired are probably a) no longer capable of dealing with that stress, and/or b) don't want to deal with it and deserve a well-earned retirement.
But hey, maybe with all the bullshit stripping away of social security, Medicare, etc etc, they will be forced to come out of retirement to help. I'm sure that's not a recipe for disaster!
For fuck's sake, we live in the stupidest timeline, I swear. And we can't even fully enjoy Musk ruining his ill-deserved legacy and humiliating himself, because all of us are the collateral damage.
You're giving them ideas damnit
Ahh shit, you're right!
No no, just replace all air traffic controllers with AI without even testing it first. I really want the world to see how badly Musk is NOT a genius but an idiot who stumbled his way into a position that makes him ungodly amounts of undeserved money.
Lol. I hope the ATCs stay parked on their butts. Let a few of the private jets go down because the FAA isn't there to keep them on their paths. Or to make any effort to anonymize them, since flight plans are legally required to be public info. Let them feel what the rest of us do.
Was Elmo always this stupid or did the Neuralink fried his brain?
He was always this stupid, but he had enough family wealth and connections to fail his way up.
where 'heightened scrutiny' means they fired everyone they don't like or that doesn't like them.
if he really cared he would post somewhere relevant.
The article skips over FAA’s systemic failures; Musk’s tweet isn’t the full story.
