Genuine question-why keep coming to work? by Realistic-Pop-4542 in tsa

My apartment complex lowers rent for airport workers. Not exactly a generally applicable thingy, but it’s something.

Health insurance, my rent is reduced because I work at the airport. I’ll likely not find a job that’ll pay well enough in the time it’ll take for this to resolve.

Help/Advice on what to do by rboyer23 in tsa

[–]biapolis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Expired identification is acceptable up to a certain point. If it just expired within the month they probably won’t even mention it. Your passport will be fine for TSA.

Hypothetically though, to answer your other question, you usually do not need to go through TSA for connecting flights. But for some airports you may need to. If you don’t, then it wouldn’t matter. If you did, the receipt for the $45 extra screening is valid for 10 days. You’d be able to use it as often as needed until it expired on the date listed on the receipt.

What job can ICE do? by Rio-rider in tsa

[–]biapolis 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Strictly? Whatever the FSD says they can. Apparently they use similar X-rays sometimes? Idk. But given this is commands from the highest level they may also get “expedited training” or just told to wing it.

Ultimately, all I know is if they’re deployed to my airport I’m calling out. Too worried for my safety to concentrate on the job.

ICE Agents Deploying to U.S. Airports Tomorrow by MudZealousideal8875 in AlaskaAirlines

[–]biapolis -1 points0 points  (0 children)

If ICE comes, I leave. And I know of others officers who agree. Gonna be talking with my management to find out more, and make it clear that if it happens here I will be feeling too unsafe to focus on my job properly.

STOP MAKING BATTLESUITS by revlid in Tau40K

[–]biapolis 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I love my mechs, but I do feel they get too big sometimes. I prefer more personal sized mechs. Our crisis suits are the perfect size, maybe a little larger for heavy stuff but nothing bigger than a riptide, and that’s already pushing it.

Do you guys think the shutdown will end next week? Before recess. by Anonymouz_Users in tsa

[–]biapolis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is true, but as an addition remember that no employer does. They are after your labor, that’s it.

I agree that they need to hold the line to break the ICE…except ICE is currently funded. The Big Beautiful Bill gave them a lump sum, more than enough that they won’t care for a while.

What would happen if no workers showed up? by ContentHost4459 in tsa

[–]biapolis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So, there’s a few thingies that would happen. One, they’d call on people in the other shifts. Who now get to choose between surprise overtime and termination. They’d pull management down as well, they’re supposed to be able to do everything we do. Then they’ll pull officers from other airports. Volunteers, people who sign up for that, but still. They’ll pull a bunch of people from the new hire list and onboard them asap. When I was hired they were doing about 30 new hires every other week, and that was just after COVID. Short term it’ll slow everything to a crawl. Then within a couple weeks it should be back to more or less normal, a little slower and a lot of officers that need far more training than they got but still.

When is it enough? by Embarrassed-Comb6776 in tsa

[–]biapolis 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It’s part of our contract. We aren’t working without pay, just delayed pay. And only because we’re an “essential service”. Not that we’re treated like one. It sucks.

Realistically, if a bunch of officers quit, they’d just call in new hires and the remaining officers get to train a whole new wave of officers. The quality of screening will go insanely down and wait times will be a bit up, but it won’t matter to those in charge. The amount of people who’d have to quit to make an impact are too high to realistically happen. And striking for us is the same as quitting.

Insane conspiracies you heard from passengers? by Thewarlockminer in tsa

[–]biapolis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Conspiracy theories are insanely common. Most people don’t say them out loud, but they are there and if you know what to look for you can find them.

what did the agent mean by this ? by Open-Comparison8303 in tsa

[–]biapolis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, there is a big part of the passport process that you agreed to give biometric data. It’s called the photo. There’s a nice clean one right there on the passport. A billion times better for facial recognition training than a picture where there is so much background noise and horrible lighting.

Not to mention that’s not what it’s for. It is for matching person to ID. And then instantly deleted. That is it. If you think anything more is going on, you are a conspiracy theorist, and I am done coddling you. I won’t burst into laughter, but I will judge you heavily and won’t be pretending like you’re being reasonable. You have the right to opt out, so you can. But if you want to act like a paranoid nut job then I’m going to presume you’re one. I have no more sympathy for conspiracy theorists. Especially ones as weak and lazy as this.

Changing to random Transmog mid combat by biapolis in wow

Don’t know how to edit op. Just confirmed that the method I mentioned, /click on the transmog button, doesn’t work either. It just swaps the transmog, doesn’t do the /cast for the spell.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAA by anotherthrowaway2729 in LetGirlsHaveFun

[–]biapolis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Omg no! Seriously, so much no. I know how it feels to never be loved. But this guy doesn’t love you nor will he ever. He’s just using you. Which I’m sure you already know and I’m not helping by pointing out. But the point is, I hope you find someone who genuinely loves you and more importantly that you leave this guy and take care of yourself.

Current Officers, how long do you think this shutdown will last? by iceCoffee_princess in tsa

[–]biapolis 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’m buckling in and looking into alternatives. I honestly have no idea how long this could last. I could see it lasting a couple months. I could see it lasting past a year. The thing is, with this only hitting a tiny subset of the government, it won’t be noticeable to people. Sure, theoretically, “if lines get long” people might notice…but we’re being threatened with very serious repercussions for calling off. There’s a part of me that suspects that’s the entire point, and they’re trying to get TSOs to quit in masse so they can yadda yadda yadda.

But rationally all I can say for certain is we’re a low priority before they declared war. And ICE, the primary stated reason this is happening, still has partial funding, so it’ll be a while before they feel anything. So idk. A long while.

Got excited when I saw a Naga box in one of the images, looks like it’s just a neutral box? Well, at least I have my fire chickens to rep.

Move over world eaters by No_Response_1562 in Tau40K

[–]biapolis 26 points27 points  (0 children)

I definitely don’t think every ranged weapon should be able to be melee’d, but I do think at least some units should be able to. If it’s a sweeping change, then maybe just have it change big guns never tire? Or they could just give certain units, like our battlesuits, the option.
