What’s the problem? Video gamers are a mature, level-headed group of adults who can handle stress in a calm, sensible way.

my take is that there is a pretty active microsoft flight sim community that does this stuff basically all the time so in a world where these ghouls werent in charge it wouldnt be the worst idea

Wait did Flight Sinulator change from flying planes to where you sit in a tower all day directing traffic at a busy airport?

There's a lot of studies that say gamers have some pretty transferrable skills for managing complex tasks and decision-making!

Once you filter for people who'd take a job with this administration for the absolutely shit working conditions, it gets a lot less rosy.

But respectfully, the ghouls in charge are not hiring the people you’re referencing.

Just like gaming it’s super intense and all this stuff is happening all at once, but you can always save the game and return later if you die or need a snack, and there’s always more dudes to try again.
It’s *exactly* the same!

They’ll just lower the bar like they did for ICE agents and the military.

honestly they should just start recruiting people from vatsim. it's a hobbyist st. platform that provides ATC services too flightsim pilots.

but I don't think the problem is recruiting. the problem is the fact that nobody wants to do the job with the current pay benefits and hours.
