I would guess most TSA agents live paycheck to paycheck like most Americans . So even if they show up and know they’re getting paid they still can’t buy gas to get to work now.
I wanted to post an article from here in Las Vegas about tsa but wouldnt copy. Many are getting payday loans at high interest. Their morale is low and their mental health is affected. They’re not high income earners like pilots. Just curious how many of you posting here have 3-6 months in an accessible account ? How many spend all they make ?
