In other news, ZMA is now literally full of poo poo, in addition to being figuratively full of poo poo as normal. ZMA FACRep posted:

Luckily my OT tomorrow isn’t until 1300. I hope no one needs to take a leak on the mid.

fknlo posted:Hearing that someone threatened to have deals if they were "forced" to recertify is a new one for me. It doesn't shock me with this person but god drat. ZMA presently has a CPCIT that got here just before COVID, saw the level of traffic we work and said "NOPE" and has been scamming his way out of training for more than two years now. He was recently caught LIVING FULL-TIME IN THE ANNEX AND SHOWERING IN THE TECH-OPS SHOWERS DOWNSTAIRS and collecting level 12 CPC save-pay while his transfer paperwork gathers dust on some desk somewhere. Motherfucker don't even step to me with dysfunctional facility stories.

Didn’t ZJX have a guy get DQed and briefly become an article 45 valet?

babyeatingpsychopath posted:Since NOTAMS is down at y'all have a bunch of spare time, HOST, the old system that was used at the ARTCC level was exactly as you describe, but has been replaced and removed nationwide. ERAM is the current center environment, and is a distributed system running on Xeon E3 1230s (IIRC) at the individual sector level. I have no idea what STARS runs on (the current terminal radar hardware.)

fknlo posted:They were talking about something at KMIA in the reddit thread on this yesterday. The upshot of this one is that MIA just isn’t climbing FLL departures anymore because pointouts and handoffs are simply too hard for a level 12 departure control to handle. Instead, they’re leaving the Lauderdale departures level at ten thousand feet for twenty five or thirty miles, which absolutely positively doesn’t have any knock-on effects for anybody*. *Anybody that Miami approach gives a flying gently caress about.

its all nice on rice posted:Curious what OT looks like in other facilities. Coming into spring, we have almost everyone on OT every week. Even those of us on the no list. Management is starting to send out sick leave abuse letters to people who consistently call in on their OT shifts. Our season is ~November-April, and I think I had a total of seven days off in November and December combined. I’m AWS, so I had a couple 60hr work weeks thrown in there too, where my 8hr OTs got extended (and in one case scheduled-as) to 10s. Money’s good, but your brain stops working right after a couple weeks of that. Coming into weather season, I’m getting an OT a pay period, or maybe a bit more than that. Also, explaining to people that the no list doesn’t mean they can’t assign you overtime is always entertaining.

Any of you losers at convention? I made it to the opening reception, but I’ve been tied up with real life stuff. I’ll be back in later, but I’ll come find goons if there are any.

It’s been raining in south Florida for like 48 hours now. Just to make sure everything is awful, the sewer main directly in front of ZMA just let loose. It’s a little too on-the-nose for my usual comedic style. Super glad I’m off today.

I’m pretty sure the offender has retired, which is why it hasn’t happened in awhile, but our control room men’s room used to get put out of commission by giant wads of toilet paper about every other month or so. Just the classiest people imaginable.
