Where I work (on the east coast) we are working <i>mandatory</i> 6 day work weeks, and forced 10 hour days most of the time, due to short staffing. <i>We are also falling asleep on the job</i>, so this report that NASA is trying to hide will not surprise me....pay very close attention to it, since if they are like the FAA, most of the truth with be concealed in the details. If travelers knew what pretty much the whole ATC workforce knows (which what the FAA won't tell them), they would probably be driving <b>a lot</b> more often. I am an air traffic controller.
