Don't be so sensitive Bino's; I think you'd be a real asset in your twilight years.
The biggest problem with the college over the last 5 years; is the 'retirement crew' dusting off the headsets... This isn't current staff seeing out there days at the college; it's been some crusty old blokes who had given up the gig 5-10 years earlier coming back for another go. But they are cheaper than FPCs you know.
There also has been that little matter of every applicant, being failed to be released from ops duties when selected.
Some of the old blokes (they are all great blokes by the way) have been multi-tasking; i.e. ex SNR TWRs (5 years past) teaching Enroute, where they hadden 'trod the boards' in over 20 years. One was heard to say, where are the strips?
Have been some current bods there in recent times, mostly all from the North; not that there's anything wrong with that.
