Default A slice of reality-pie from the other end of the mic

My colleagues have expressed their surprise, that more pilots aren't aware of the present-day conditions of the ATC workforce. Aside from 10 second snipets spouting "delays are increasing" on the news channels, most Americans are uninformed of what is REALLY happening.

Take a gander at some comments from this website. They're from controllers who are fed up, and have either retired earlier than planned, or will retire earlier than planned. Go ahead, take 5 minutes of your time.
