I understand people do get p##sed off with ATCO's winging and not satisfied with their pay offer. However, my view (for what it is worth) is that some ATCO's would sell there own mother for the price of a mars bar! But for the normally ATCO like me, the reason i think we are slightly different regarding responsibilities is this;
When i plug and are banging the aircraft in 2.5nm apart and having lots of fun everyone is happy
If i am suddenly caught stroking my balls and HRH suddenly see some aluminum in her front garden! It would be me that is standing up in court awaiting my sentence for manslaughter etc etc.
So the point i am trying to make is we all have responsibilities and accountabilities within NATS but the guy delivering the goods is where the life and death decisions are made.
As usual i await the ar#e chewing
