Fuckers

Today was my last day on the job. Thank God.

New policies that have been or are being instituted to fuck the controller even more:

Find something, anything to "gig" the controller for so that they don't earn their "bonus" money. (Used to be called cost of living increase).

Secondly, since a controller gets a step increase and a pay raise after certifying at three associate radar positions, they've decided to train developmentals at two associate radar positions and two radars. Once they have these, they're "useful" and will be put to work indefinitely, before training resumes and they earn that extra dough. The next time a controller gets a step increase or raise is when they get their fourth radar position, so they'll train at the rest of the associate radar positions, get the small increase, certify at another radar, then work for a period of time before entering their next phase of training.

So instead of the two-four years for a controller to become full performance, it will take up to twice that long.

Only problem is, they'll run out of FPL's before they get the next batch trained. But they don't care about what's going to happen a few years down the road, oh hell no, they're only concerned what the numbers look like on their next report.

Bastards.
