A friend's husband is one. It's not nearly that simple, he had to do a specialized school program, then work some BS before that step. Took almost a decade.

Idk where your friends husband did their training, but typically it takes about 1-1.5 years at a tower and 2-2.5 years at a center to be fully certified

Center is where you make the most $$ which is why training is longer

Normally people who check out at a tower try and ERR (transfer) to another facility either for more $$ or to be at a better destination they wanna work at, or for whatever reason

That may be it or part, don't remember all the details. He was on struggle until he finished years later and started making real bread.

Some funny/interesting ATC convo compilations

Some of these are tower life, and I have no idea what that’s like compared to center life

There's a reason they're only allowed to work 3 days a week.

Theres some schedules out there now where it’s 4 10 hour days

The one I bid is a weird one where it’s 9/9/8/7/7 hour days

But we all work 40 hour weeks. Not sure what your friend did

Why is there limit 31? So everyone that works there is younger than that?

I'm a military dudes with 3 years left on my contract, so it's a pass for me, but it does seem interesting.

They want 20-25 years of service and your mental capacity for the job decreaes dramatically after 56… that’s what’s all the data and research says

Yeah I’d say the average new person is probably 25-26.. most CPC (fully get done) about 27-28

 

[jaydawg08]

Job bid is open until November 4th

Just this past shift I worked 2.5 hours then had close to 5.5hours of breaks… looked at my paystub to see another $4k deposited even when I’m close to maxing out my TSP

Only had 1 “busy” stint all week, the rest was extremely routine or slow

Not flexing, just letting yall know the life that you can live at a higher level facility when it’s not peak travel season.
