So glad to see I'm not alone.

coming up on 25yrs of tower work, I gave up all ojti, projects etc a long time ago. Now I come to work, i do my job, I unplug and go home... and still get paid the same without the extra hassles. I like my job ( maybe not some of the hours...), I enjoy the cut and thrust of tower work.

I want to be around aeroplanes - not drive dots, diamonds, squares, pentagons etc around a computer screen or work in an office looking at 4 walls and kissing things I would rather not.

I would be happy to have pilots do shadow ops to see it from the 'other side' but bearing in mind the above I would be deemed not suitable. ( I don't think they'd trust me as I have a habit of telling it like it REALLY is and not the way manglers would like it seen ).
