The headline should have read:

Democrat Media
Scares Airlines Into
Craping on Christmas
by Cancelling Flights.

Fauci’s revenge.

Watch the cancelations be over on 12/26

Omicron = our unvaxxed pilots called in sick again.

This is idiotic. A couple of our employees took their Christmas leave 2 days ago to DRIVE CROSS COUNTRY for Christmas. Why do you need to fly and have this crap potentially happen?

Would guess some people are canceling because of Omicron/covid. Have had some in my family bow out for Christmas this week.

Well, someone I know went to Anchorage this morning for Christmas and didn’t want to risk the Al-Can this time of year. Plus she would have arrived after the festivities were over.

Thus is what Putin is thinking about as he plans the Invasion of Ukraine. He will be sitting on a beach on the Black sea after taking 20% of Ukraine as “Novo Russian” state if the Russian Federation. Will Biden, the US Military risk WW III for Kiev? Why?

It's not just the stupid vax mandate killing hospitals.

In the one I work in has seen an exodus of people, not just nurses. My department, housekeeping, hired 5 people two weeks ago. Young kids mostly. They all quit a week later. Other departments are also seeing people, young and old leaving.
