Angry OJTI Whingers

In response to the recent post about us T&D whingers.

All of the OJTI atcos who are considering a training ban seem to be also whinging about the same thing as us T&Ders. That is money.

The net result of being an OTJT is not meant to be the extra pay, but to help contribute to the increased number of valid ATCOs (no matter how poorly paid in relation to yourselves) at your unit. When you train an ATCO up to vaildation standard this will mean far more than just increased pay for yourself. It will mean in the short term, more oppurtunity for breaks and reduced time per session, more annual leave as there are more valid atcos to cover absence, and eventually your retirement as there are people there to replace you.

As you slate T&D Valid ATCOs for wanting pay equality you are also wanting more money for training people. So if you feel so put out by not being rewarded financially why dont you just give up your OJTI ticket?

Oh yes but i forgot that would mean less money for you!
