Yeah an ATCO job is really bloody 'cushty'. Thats why there is a world shortage of us and the pass rate is so bad..... it must be really really 'cushty'.
If everyone could do it, the pay, conditions etc would be half of what we get.
If you fancy your chances pugwash.... put your money where your mouth is and come give it a try.
Its very easy looking from the sideline and giving criticism about a lot of things you dont know the ins and outs of, pay, pensions etc.....
So can i infer that the pay and conditions are actually ok and quite acceptable for the job you do?
if this is the case why are you all going on about retirement?
i don't for one minute think that the job is easy (god i really hope it isn't otherwise i'm wasting my time), but i'm also hoping that not everyone hates the role, and is just waiting for retirement
which is what all the replies on this thread have said so far.
you notice that i didn't criticise the work that ATCOs do, more the attitude on this thread, taht seems to be: its dreadful we all want to retire.
please please please tell me that not all ATCOs feel like this?
