“...my level 6 up/down is super busy...” It’s a 6 up/down, it isn’t busy.
I’d prefer the union take the safety route by reducing the potential for myself and other BUEs from being exposed to unnecessary risk and potentially dying.
The entitlement is REAL in this thread
Every time we had government shut downs and furloughs I was hoping someone would say this and eliminate jobs. Not controller jobs but the layers and layers of redundancy jobs, administrative support people that you never noticed them do something once when they were there or noticed anything missing with them gone, or move people from teams like the airspace and training departments at centers which often have 4X the people they need back to the floor.
Yeah because hazard pay reduces the risk...
I support your hazard pay 🙂. See we can want different thing but we can support each other.obviously didn't say that, but typically people are more accepting of higher risk if they are properly compensated. sort of a self evident universal truth. LOL one would think the same would theoretically apply to being forced to OJTI atc trainees during pandemic

But it never happen, like never, never. Never, never.

millennials! "me, me, me, me.... and more muthafuckin ME! "
FLMs should be first to go. Completely useless position with functionally 0 power or productivity within the construct of how facilities realistically operate. also a drag on the operation from a currency, operational proficiency, providing good service level. The contractor jobs in theory serve a purpose, but in reality because the old men who get those jobs are retired entitled controllers who refuse to work more than 2 hours a day, they can go to. bye bye #PackYourShit

He said he prefers the union take the safety routes by reducing the risk and you responded about how if only the CBA addressed it by referencing hazard pay. As you mentioned, nobody wants the OJTI differential either.
So busy work?An update to the zoom calls, looks like it’s gonna be not only the d side and r side classroom material, but also some recurrent material thrown in as well.
Be funny if they make some of the CPCs who are acting so holier than thou on this thread tune inAn update to the zoom calls, looks like it’s gonna be not only the d side and r side classroom material, but also some recurrent material thrown in as well.
We’re watching the same power points we watched at academy, and when we started at our facility. Third time is the charm. Did you know 1000’ is the required vertical separation? 20 miles, 10 minutes Longitudinal!So busy work?
We have to do recurrent training every year. Twice a year, actually! So at some point, they probably will! I’ll gladly sit at home and watch the same controller at Potomac have atrocious deals while making that sweet, sweet CPC moneyBe funny if they make some of the CPCs who are acting so holier than thou on this thread tune in
Bet you wouldn’t if you were 5 on and they made you work on your EA days.We have to do recurrent training every year. Twice a year, actually! So at some point, they probably will!

Developmentals go to récurrent too. This isn’t that. And then you rub in the money that is locked and no one in the agency can aspire to anymore.We have to do recurrent training every year.

You’ll get there one day, slugger. Just keep swinging for the fences!Developmentals go to récurrent too. This isn’t that. And then you rub in the money that is locked and no one in the agency can aspire to anymore.
