NFL lockout

The NFL has been in a long dispute with its players. the dispute reached a new level this year when the United States judicial system got involved in the matter. After a long back and forth between both sides there has been a lockout of all NFL players. In order to try and make sure there is a league there has been a three week cushion put into place so no games will be missed during the season. some people think this is unnecessary because there is going to be a league.

 I think that there is no point in doing this either because i think there is going to be a league. too much money will be lost for both sides of the case in order for them to shut the league down. do you think there will be a league?

Air Traffic Control

There have been three air traffic contol employees found asleep on the job. these employees are working the midnight shift when they are the only ones inside the control room. the cases are not all in the same airport they have been found accross the nation. one of the employees that was found sleeping actually had a blanket and pillow in the control room which shows that he has done this on many different occasioins.

recently there has been new rules put into place stating that employees must have nine hours inbetween each shift. I think that this is a good idea. there are more things that could be done to trya nd stop this incident from happening again. I think that shifts need to be split into six hours shifts. I know that it sounds bad because peoples hours will be cut but I think that it will require people to work more often becuase their shifts will be shorter.
