Against my better judgement I feel like joining in this group hug...
Whilst I'm here Id like to re-iterate my colleagues comments.
ATC is a small world. A very small world. The people you meet on the way up are the people who will decide your future in the long run.
When I was going through the process I met 10+ OJTIs at the college through pprune.
My advice? Stay grey... Blend in... Dont stand out...
At the moment, regardless of whether your comments deserved the flaming you have received, you are making yourself a big target...
This isn't a threat, this isn't me having a go... This is the way it is.
Sorry mate... Welcome to ATC.
Traaaaaaaaaa!
