These people are getting paid since February 15th when they were fired. Meanwhile, many of these positions were being backfilled by air traffic controllers working overtime, most of the time not doing as well of a job as the person who was “fired” in the first place.
So to recap: Elon and Trump fired well qualified and necessary employees, continued to pay them after they left, then over paid someone else to do their job, but worse, making us all less safe and simultaneously overworking an already notoriously overworked group of ATCs who have one of the most stressful jobs in the world.
I dunno about you guys, but I’m not sure this Department of Government Efficiency is actually very efficient…
