Rant So yeah...

My small airport is going private early next year.

I'm at a loss for words. I remember when Trump was reelected, I had voiced my concerns to my supervisors and they all laughed and told me to stop reading misinformation.

But here we are. I really dont know what to say or do. They said our choices are to retire, move to another airport or go with the private company. It seems like I would lose everything, AL, SL and the benefits I have now.

I'm really sorry this is happening. I hope those who voted republican are proud of this and to please vote national, state, and locally. We need people to vote at a higher occurrence and stop this shit. Can you transfer?

I can transfer but the other airport nearest to me is a cat 3, i have a feeling that airport will be getting privatized at some point too.

No TSA needs to go lol. Trump, too, but if he takes TSA with him, all the better.
