NATS Departure Lounge
Hi,
I have been having problems receiving emails from NATS HR, quite desperate to get onto Departure lounge now! I have logon details but just dont have a link to the lounge. If anyone could send it to me in a private message I would be very grateful!!
I start on course 219 in may, is anyone else on the same course?
Cheers!!
Ian

To Fletchers Left Boot,
Personally, I've blocked Zooker - a wondeful tool that means you can't see the nonsense he posts.
FYI, (as far as I can gather) he is a spotter who listens to (mostly MACC) ATC making him/her/it fully qualified to comment on these threads!!

I'm amazed to find now my desk piled up with CVs from young NATS ATCOs who would have previously never left NATS

Nats are world leaders not only in Atc but in completely alienating and hacking off there employees. They are currently working on a very successful campaign to divide and conquer and have the lowest morale of any Atc provider in Europe.

I'd leave, but at the moment I can't
I'm stuck in a house with negative equity and I'm paying back debts that take a hefty chunk out my wages. Once my debts clear in a few years and I've made some inroads into the mortgage at the same time then I will be looking all over the world if NATS is going the same way it is now.

smellysnelly2004,
"Personally, I've blocked Zooker"
RUBBISH !!
If this is the case, how can you possibly know whether or not nonsense is being posted?
Alas,
notwithstanding the above, 15 posts in, we are still no wiser as to the exact location of the 'NATS Departure Lounge'.
I suspect it might be an obscure concept, which has been cunningly devised by 'HR head honchos'.

The man at the top doesn't give a damn about valid, experienced controllers...or any other staff...with loads to offer leaving NATS because he will be leaving himself soon with loads of wonga in his pockets. He certainly isn't going to lose sleep over the trail of misery he has left behind.

To the OP,
There are some things on the departure lounge you have to learn prior to college so hope (it seems so) that you have got your access sorted.
smellysnelly2004 - ZOOKER now added to my ignore list also, I assume he is probably the most blocked user on here!

Zooker is obviously not an ATCO else would know what the NATS Departure Lounge actually is!
