Air traffic controllers warn of 'tipping point' as U.S. government shutdown drags on The government shutdown is taking a growing toll on air traffic controllers who are working without pay. Staffing shortages led to big delays over the weekend, raising concerns about travel chaos.

I work with people that are working a second job at night and are just calling in sick in morning when they can't go to job that doesn't pay them because they're too tired, said one controller.

You know, I'm going to join that guy here next week if things don't pan out.
