DOT holiday time off

[GulfBravoPapa]

So was looking for an email from my ATM today in my FAA email and see that Secretary Buttigieg gave all DOT employees three hours of free leave today to start their Labor Day Weekend early. Why is nothing done to compensate air traffic and other shift workers in the DOT? I'll take an extra three hours of holiday pay please. Or 3 free hours of credit. Why does essentially only the office staff get free time off? I feel like this happens every three day weekend too... here's a free two hour early shove for the DOT.

It’s prolly under admin time. And don’t worry your support staff will get it ?

Maybe if NATCA wasn’t so busy fighting to shut down training everywhere, they’d have time to fight for something useful like this. Such a shame.

Such bull shit. People can only get it today and the last 3 hours is how the supervisor told us.

Because “the contract is simply as good as it ever possibly could be and it would just be insulting to ask for anything else”

We didn’t get enough free leave last year? This is why we extended our contract, 3 fucking hours and we look like a bunch of begging little
Bitches at a free food buffet.
Gots to get mine.

No we get paid the right amount for the 40 hour work week.

So your take the whole department gets the time off but controllers shouldn’t.

You probably got free leave. Admin should fix it. FYI. Unless sick. Your sol

I’m saying it’s only 3 hours, why give a shit? Boo hoo I didn’t get mine. My god. You prob got 4 hours of break time at your Z and got to leave 45 early. That’s seriously not good enough?

You leave 45 mins early? That would get you in big trouble lol

nah it would just be cool to get 3 hours or double time. That’s it. That’s all. And that’s the bottom lineeeeeee. Cus stone cold said so.

Hahahahahahahahaha. This is a bigger joke than the whole NEB running unopposed.

We don’t get compensated well?
Edit: Even if you don’t think so, it’s worth complaining about the 3 hours?
