I'll bet the current controllers are over the moon
No, they're happy cause I left

A good area controller and a good approach controller have different brains. I've had enroute controllers (at TC) come over and watch LL FIN and exclaim "Geezus, I couldn't do that, you're pointing stuff at each other", and on the other side of things, I have sat famil on enroute sectors (radar and procedural) and scratched my head at the standing agreement requrements, speed separation standards and alike. Some are more suited to one discipline than the other. Now, working this out is the fun part.
