I think your all harsh!!

There's good and bad everywhere...I had one who was too frightened to answer the phone. As long as they remember that they are a part of a team and listen to the voices of experience then they will do fine... otherwise let them sink...believe me it wont take them long..

Fortunately the one in question is a great DOC and there are a few more like them here but they are sat next to a sgt all day who they know knows better most of the time.. this doesnt stop them from learning or being good managers.

Really Mr. Brent? So you know the person to whom I am referring. I am not him but I do know him. Please explain to me why you find that so rib-ticklingly funny?

Why should I? You were quick to extoll his worthiness for promotion...... why don't you justify that first. Then perhaps I may answer your question.

Love your avatar by the way. Perhaps that is how you see yourself in the work place. Heading off in a direction all on your own!

Right I must go and see what is in Gareths cookie jar!

The new (untrained) baby DOC's took control of everything


Just the though of an ops officer taking "control" sends shivers up my spine -Frightening!!

Come on then, own up. Who has hidden Ops Officers password?? The poor chap hasn't been able to post any superior messages this morning.

Got to go and get Gareth off of the photo-copier.

Slough.....in dire need of an airfield.
 
Sleeping....... ah yes I remember. Week four, second module of the FOTS course.

"How to remain in control of the Ops Room whilst asleep"

Tough week that was.
 
do you know that if they took all of the visits etc out of the FOTS Course it would only last 3 weeks - and those 3 weeks would be wasted.
 
Does anyone else get the feeling that some people on these forums are taking themselves and comments made, far, far too serioulsy?

Or is it just me?

Just me you say!!

Oh well.

Gareth!!!!
 
And as for the Ops O saying that The Office is over rated!!!!! Well, I just don't know. Perhaps he is bitter about "To The Manor Born" being cut all of those years ago. Never mind, maybe "Man About The House" will be on UK Gold soon.

FOTS Officers are like Milk Monitors. Their jobs are not really important to anyone who is not (A) a FOTS Officer or (B) a Milk Monitor. Flying would not cease without the former and you can always pop to the shop for some milk.
 
I wouldn't give FOTS officers the responsibility of looking after milk let alone anyhting else! :)
 
Aren't FLOPS Offrs failed air traffic controllers who can't get re-selected as Stackers?
 
Shhhhh Ops O, guess what? It was BBC2 but I think just think you may have gotten away with it!! I wont tell anyone if you dont

Back to Radio 3 land sir, oh and I have your crayons when you need them.


Oh and another thing, the producers of the Simpsons consider Ricky Gervais to be worthy enough to write an episode of the said program, cant be all that bad can he?

Crap Comedy at the BBC? Fawlty Towers, The Two Ronnies, Only Fools and Horses, One foot in the grave (sic! FOTS) and Men Behaving badly to name but a few.

Oh to have a sense of humour!

Didnt think that Upstairs Downstairs was a comedy (couldve been ITV!)
 
You can see from the last entry that Ops Officers are only good for watching TV while the FOM & Ops Assts keep the show running.

It's nice to get such reviews, saves me reading the Radio Times when I get home from a hard night shift............

...........cup of tea please Sir while I sort the flying prog out for the 'morrow.
