I've found myself compelled to submit my second ever post!
Some of the criticism levelled at my CTC colleagues has been a little harsh. I call them colleagues, because I find myself, after 19 years at operational units (and a valid ATSA at Heathrow) based at the CTC. Not to blow too much sunshine up their arses (you know who you are), I have always found the majority of project people extremely knowledgeable and helpful - but that's not the most surprising thing - I think they actually want to make a difference to the operation by making life easier for you chaps at the coalface. TC Relocation was a good example - For those of you that don't know Goldfrog (a firm but fair person!), he worked tirelessly with ATCO's and ATSA's to provide a sound operation. Just as I did.

Now...what about that payrise?
