Well said Gonzo....I have been making this point for months. However, when 1/3 of the ATCOs on a unit are Managers, and all of the LCEs are Managers, then a certain pressure can be brought to bear. It seems that our loyalty should not be to the responsibilities and values that come with our validations, but to Management's next "big idea". When it comes down to it, everyone is capable of moaning, but very few are willing to stand up and be counted (and if the GM asks, it's a grrreat idea). I say again !
