Thrive to spite them

Lots of ~ma to your mom Matt.

On the fed employee subreddit there are a lot of people who have said that the email pushed them where the are not going to leave and be stubborn. A lot of "my spiteful pettiness now comes in handy " and "I can hold a grudge like it's my job".

I was reading elsewhere on social media...BlueSky or reddit that a crash in that air space has been expected because it's so busy and there is very little room for error

There was very mild work drama. We have two people who do merchandise reconciliation (basically check in/unload trucks, check in vendors, do claims, stuff like that). One is amazing, R. The other is not K. We got behind on freight again and R has been helping and today K was supposed to and she didn't. Until our Har person came and told her she needed to and then K worked for about half an hour and then left

She spends most of her time watching YouTube videos or spends hours talking to vendors. And she won't offer to help with anything. But she's been an employee for 30 years so ....I don't know what will happen to her but I hope something.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Yeah, that doesn't surprise me. The airport is *right next* to the Pentagon, and obviously the White House and most of the National Mall are also no-fly zones, so aircraft have to follow incredibly specific routes during landing and takeoff.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

They did increase traffic there under Biden admin, so that may become a talking point.

Shocking nobody, he is blaming "diversity"

Always Anti-fascist!

I don't think Elon has the authority so, even though a lump sum might seem like more than I've ever seen @once, I hope I'd tell them to get stuffed. he also lies. a lot. Fork him and all his dead relatives. (pause) And he overweight!

He actually issued an executive order blaming DEI.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Shocking nobody, he is blaming "diversity"

Only a straight white cisgender dude could have prevented this! Gosh, if only Trump hadn't immediately fired the white dude (I don't want to make any assumptions about his gender or sexual orientation) in charge of the FAA as soon as he got into office last week.

If only the Blackhawk pilot hadn’t been distracted by the transgenders? I mean FFS.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

Thanks for all the well-wishes, everyone. Mom's procedure went fine, and her doctor seems to think that continuing in that vein rather than risking general anesthesia for surgery in the hospital is the way to go moving forward.

I hope he gets enough blowback on that executive memo to keep his BP firmly above 300.
