The whole thing is a scam. Between the FAA saying we can't train because COVID and NATCA coming out with the BLM shirts it's basically just coming down to public opinion now. Congrats to us all our jobs literally depend on public opinion we are so fucked
natca was bragging about how they got the 5 10 schedule and the trainees out of building. So not so sure about your second sentence.

That public health concerns and not being a giant piece of shit to your fellow Americans has become a matter of opinion is exactly the fucking problem.
 
I’m sure NATCA is tracking all the BLM and social justice reaction stuff really closely. Not to black list people but to get a gauge on where the membership truly is with it. Im sure that one of if not the primary reaction for the BLM shirt is to simply..... track how many people buy it.

If they sell 100 shirts today to 25 people who all bought four for them, their spouse and the kids, then they know that while most members might support it it’s a lot more of a tiny group that is motivated enough to buy a shirt over it. If they have 1,000 buyers buying up 1,500 shirts it’s a much more powerful internal movement.

Last i checked on the 2nd day. Over 700 were sold
 
Pretty sure the BLM fad is over. There isn't a George Floyd or BLM mention on the CNN front page at all, but there is an article covering Mama June's $2,500/day meth addiction.

Another day in the wacky world of MSM.
 
I’m not wearing a mask, it’s more dangerous to wear one then not unless you are ultra high risk.

I'm not wearing a mask. How can they mandate a mask on one side of their mouf, but say there is no hazard pay as is a CBA entitlement ? Crummy Phonies.

I'm sorry, but I am not sitting next to my trainee, or whatever when they come back if distancing is still in place. If you can put me at a spare scope fine, your debrief form will be in your box... I don't have to sit next to other controllers now, so why should I have to sit next to a trainee? I always hated sitting next to my trainee when they would cough and shit before, now, forget that nonsense.

This ?

How many "All lives matter" shirts would have sold?

So now that Europe is banning US citizens from traveling to their countries even though we basically saved them in 2 world wars, how screwed are we?
 
You guys read way too deep into what I said. It's not my belief that the BLM movement is a temporary triviality, my belief is that mainstream media is corrupt and serves only to protect its cause and agenda...not provide unbiased information.

I'm on CNN too. Unlike two days ago, now there is a 12pt, three word header that says "LIVE UPDATES: BLM." Remember three weeks ago when everything was blowing up about protests all over the country, cities bowing to the pressure and making the necessary changes, everyone was up in arms. It was ALL over the place. Internet, TV, radio....now, I don't hear about it at all. The best CNN's got is "Black Lives Matter Protests have not led to a spike in cases." The movement isn't dead, but its coverage is. Gotta get back to trash talking Trump, an election is around the corner.

This was brought up because I misread a previous post about a theory that NATCA was tracking the BLM protest responses. I thought it meant the large scale, nationwide protests may hinder a return to a normal schedule for us, not just for merchandising. My comment was tongue in cheek, that since MSM stopped largely covering the movement, that is must be over with and not a logistical concern.

So I'm sorry if I pissed anyone off, I am not racist...I hate the system, not the players.
