the workload is also pretty brutal, so it might not be worth it in the end, and the ability to go the training school also is competitive.

    Entering the school is a bit annoying but you don’t need anything else besides having a brain and resisting stress. Not knowing if you will succeed is stressful but that goes for any school, and this one is paying you to attend it, not the other way around.

    The workload is easy, I’m at the EU airways crossroads and working ATC is easy, I feel like I’m always on days off and I work less than 5h a day. Honestly it’s one of the best career you can do besides being rich and not working.

    Maybe it’s because I’ve been doing that for more than a decade so it’s natural now.

    And mostly, Europe isn’t FAA, I can’t tell for them but from what I’ve read it’s a shit show over there.
