My wife just dodged LAX ATC ground stops when she flew home earlier in the week. I had delays returning from SoCal on Wednesday, though to be fair, I think they were mostly UA ops related (though it's possible the crew delays were due to ATC impacting their arrivals). But then a friend I'd met up with while out in LA had about 6 hours of delays due to LAX ATC yesterday.

I'm not looking forward to traveling the next couple of weeks if this lapse continues, because staffing is going to only get worse.
