Default NATCA Going Down in Flames

Government employees are not subject to market forces the way private
sector employees are. Customer dissatisfaction with their product does not
cause them lose jobs or pay. Therefore, they do not necessarily feel the
same pressure to produce goods and services that satisfy their customers.

An external device, such as a reasonable dress code, might go a long way
towards instituting some of that discipline.


How?



The only reason controllers can feel like they can oppose management on
every issue is because they think the government monopoly that has
provided them with their jobs and pay is forever going to be there.

They are wrong.


But ATC will always be a monopoly.
