Memorandum issued reference the Government Employee Fair Treatment Act of 2019. This was written a while back but it’s a good read.
The highlight is may choose to be on furlough for excused absence. So you can take annual furlough or sick furlough.
I GUARANTEE that continuing resolution goes through-shutting down the government is good for the working plebian class now (free leave and guaranteed pay) so our reptilian overloads will 100% not let us have that

All leave? Credit too? Cause I have 3 days in the first week of October

This is what I'm curious about. So somebody calls in sick, but you tell the sup you want it to be sick furlough. Hopefully not, but I wouldn't be surprised to get pushback on that.

Not if there's a shutdown you don't. (Jk we cam take leave now!) Or you can call and ask your absence to be converted to furlough

Call in sick. Call in to convert sick to furlough.
But I'm serious the elites won't let a shutdown happen now that government employees are protected. We have guaranteed pay like shutting down doesn't even save money. It's just some hype piece to keep Trump out of jail or something

I would 100% expect pushback. My facility likes to force people on sick leave instead excused for Covid related shit and “fix it later”. It’s a constant fight and it’s will be no different. They don’t want people knowing they can just bang in and request furlough instead. There are far more disgruntled employees today than during the 35 day shutdown imo. It’s gonna hit the agency hard lol.
Facilities need to figure out how to milk taking turns on leave until the first missed paycheck on the 17th, THEN unleash hell. Most of us desk-jockeys want a free 2 week stay-cation with minimal financial impact; forget dodging traffic and get on my level, I'm trying to dodge work altogether! 🤣
hopefully this shutdown is long, painful, and protracted. due to my superior financial planning, i can hold out for a very long time, not sure all FAA employees have the cheddar to, though. after all, we are severely underpaid, so i wouldn't fault anyone.
maybe it will make more controllers disgruntled enough to stop simping, apologizing for, and making excuses for the govn't at every turn

This is the reason I'm still skeptical of a shutdown. Today's workforce is largely on 6 day workweeks against their will and salaries are abysmal. If you stop paying people I don't see how there won't be catastrophic levels of service disruption. You'd be an absolute fool to let the government shut down right now for all things aviation.

Unfortunately, definitely some fools making the decisions that would force a shutdown.

I hope this too, I’m just worried for the people on A114 assignments.
Are we going to receive our paychecks on October 3rd ?

Yes.
And a partial check on the 17th should it still be shut down that long. Correct?
Canada,
if you’re reading this send pizza

I haven't heard anything about that from the admin wing at all in the briefings that have been going on. It would be nice if true, but I wouldn't count on it.

How do we request different variety. The 20th day of free pizza was getting a little rough last time

The people with all the power in this scenario are not the type of politicians to go visit a control tower or at the very least care about some unionized government workers. They couldn’t care less about us

They want us to feel pain. They want to inflict pain among their good little grateful lackey workers.
