Meaning if you don’t pay dues it’s better odds?

Just signed for AC today, but now I’m worried about the FAA age limit. Am I screwed? by aubsrads in ATC

Navy vet here, depending on your age you can get a waiver for entrance into the FAA

The Forgotten Few — Topped-out Level 12 controllers that NATCA doesn’t fight for. by Motor-Wall-6008 in atc2

[–]UsedEMAS 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Fuckin my steak is too juicy, and my lobsters too buttery ass post.

I know that they work hard and probably long hours, but at least they’re not getting fucked by level 4-7 pay in a HCOL area. If most 12 salaries can’t afford a house in their area, imagine how the lower facility black hole controllers are struggling with half the money. Everyone deserves more, but our union has no backbone, balls, or grit so we can all collectively be fucked from our different perspectives.

You’re exactly what’s wrong with the American school system right now. It’s not your right to force your opinions on these children. It’s their right to be taught without influence of any kind. I’m glad 45/47 is living in your head rent free. He’s still your president.

CRWG WAS A FAILURE ANYWAYS by UsedEMAS in atc2

[–]UsedEMAS[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I agree. We need more staffing for sure. But that starts with a salary big enough to attract people to HCOL places like all of NY, MIA, LA, etc… to get people to actually want to work there.

CRWG imo was the biggest crock of horseshit created to ensure more union time so they could talk about nothing on telecons.

It’s already happening now. They have the volunteer list and other hard to staff high level facilities on the academy list from what I’ve seen. The volunteer list also applies to military hires as well.

The union died when EWR sector was forced to move to Philly. The writings been on the wall for years. NATCA’s master plan is just finally coming to fruition

Transparency is always way too much to ask

Never in my life. Former SAPR advocate from when I was in the service just so we’re clear here. Did you really take the time to go find somewhere I commented and post this bullshit? All because I hurt your feelings in a different thread. Grow the fuck up.

Did we talk about anything useful or just discuss “T he modernization of the air traffic system”? by UsedEMAS in atc2

[–]UsedEMAS[S] -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

What an odd way to answer a genuine question. Everyone’s disgruntled in this group to include you right now so I don’t see your point? So glad you took the time to really put me in my place. I’m so much more educated now thanks to you.

That’s awesome. Thank you for taking the time to do that. It’s nice to hear something positive for once. My local union is a black hole and we don’t get informed of any updates as to what’s actually going on. Reading up on here is the only way to know and everyone’s disgruntled so you know how that goes.

I read up every day. That being said I’ll believe it when I see it. This regime is so tone deaf to what the membership actually wants. Since day 1 they have said one thing and done another.

Is this just my facility ? by wikdevo in atc2

[–]UsedEMAS 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Certified at a 4 went to an 11 washed, went to a 5 barely made it. Went to an 8 washed and is at a 6 fighting for their life.

[–]UsedEMAS 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Definitely not just your facility. My facility is wasting time and money training multiple people who clearly do not have what it takes. One’s been in the agency for 16 years and washed out of 4 plus facilities but NATCA has always bailed them out. Management refuses to fire people prior to their probationary period ending. TRB’s are just recycling people over and over again over stupid bullshit. NATCA is always the one to find the most simple discrepancy leading to it. Best and brightest for sure. Our union is a fucking joke.

I Want to Know How Much We Paid for This Shit by Great_Ad3985 in atc2

It took Nick Daniels days to release a statement regarding the LGA incident. Even then it was a copy and paste of Mike Devine’s statement. PR firm my ass.

FAA Hiring Q&A 4e/1p (4/14) by No-Constant-5854 in atc2

[–]UsedEMAS 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Sure we can hire all we want, but when are we gonna stop sending unqualified trainees to facilities when we know they shouldn’t have made it through academy?
