They wear masks because they’re ashamed.
That’s on most commercial buildings because the law is overbroad and applies even for things like toxic cleaning supplies in the janitor closet.


Reasonable assumption in a male dominated industry.


I’m sure when they make a remembrance plaque for the genocide in Gaza, they’ll be sure to absolve themselves of blame.
High value crops like fruit, sure.
Cheap grain crops, you’re outta your mind.
It is high for a normal workforce, but the ATC pool has been greying for a long time because of a mix of neglect and mismanagement like we’re seeing right now.
Reagan made it a shitty place to work and Trump is stiffing them while taking away food stamps.
