WannabeATCO
Just a small tip. If you get through the selection process and you bring that attitude to your training, you'll probably need to be looking for a different career.
NATS (and anyone else who employs ATCOs) are looking for people who can think on their feet and deal with everything that gets thrown at them, whether expected or not. You'll also need to get used to living with a management and bureacracy which are not there to make your life easy. You'll certainly be expected to use your own initiative and put in the hard work to get yourself through all the training courses and on the job training. We can't afford to take on people who need molly coddling all the way through.
