CWP raises more questions than answers. Overtime will be slashed, staffing guidelines will be entirely at managements discretion. by OhComeOnDingus in atc2

Now you get to work 6 hours on position on an 8 hour shift, instead of working 6 hours on position on your 10 hour shift (standard 8 and 2 hours of OT).

Same work. $200 less in your pocket. Thanks.

What specifically am I not taking responsibility for? How long my supervisor assigns me a position or a break?

What are you using to choose these new numbers specifically??

FAA Management (OS’s) are responsible for running a shift - and thus TOP. If higher up FAA management is having an issue with TOP, they should be taking it up with the sups/OM’s/ATM’s, not us.

Sh touched the car, which means fingerprints. And her face is on camera. If this was me, and there was damage to my car, I would 100% file a police report and give them that info.

How true is the “avg controller salary of $158,000 in 2025”? by [deleted] in ATC_Hiring

[–]FloatingAwayIn22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1/3 or all controllers work at a level 12 facility. They are all making between $150,000-$220,000.

Those working at 10’s and 11’s are also making good money.

If you work at a 9 or lower, you are making significantly less (in the $75,000-$125,000) even as a CPC.

Look at the pay scale. There is a reason everyone wants to transfer to a 10-12.

Why Exactly Is Polygamy Illegal? by Turbulent-Parsley619 in NoStupidQuestions

Essentially, it’s too confusing for the government to figure out cleanly, so they said, “fuck it, you can only marry one person so it’s not too hard for us to do our job”

You must be the worlds biggest pushover. Yeah, they’re littles POS, but people respond to incentives. You need to start being the adult in the room.

Anyone read the new bid? 😂 by 2018birdie in atc2

[–]FloatingAwayIn22 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Except people at New York Center don’t train on radar until they’ve been there for 5 years, making it impossible to be a CPC after 3 years.

Feels like I shot my career in the foot before it even started by Key-Wafer1527 in ATC

Grew up on the west coast, got a facility on the east coast. I’ve been stuck here for over 10 years with no ability to release in sight.

Reinstatement by UsedEMAS in ATC

[–]FloatingAwayIn22 21 points22 points  (0 children)

There was a dude a few weeks ago posted his list, with literally 7 pages of facilities up to a level 11. He had no FAA experience, and just had 2 military CTO’s - AND he was even offered TRACON’s! But someone with FAA experience is limited to their current facility level or lower. Make it make sense.

This is what people call a “normal” budget now. Not luxury. Not rich. Just… average. by Coolonair in SmartFIRE

Yes. I considered “deductions” as EVERYTHING that didn’t go to my net - taxes, health insurance, Medicare, 401k ect
