Okay, file this in the Vince Lombardi "What the hell is going on out there?" category, but there has been an epidemic of air traffic controllers, and I use that term with some skepticism, falling asleep in the control towers. What does this make you want to do with all of those frequent flier miles you've been racking up? Trade them in for an upgrade on a rental car? Upgrade to a veranda on your next cruise?
How about anything except taking another flight with Sleepy from the seven dwarfs guiding your flying sardine can into a major metropolitan airport.
Yes, that's right, the guys who are charged with safeguarding the lives of thousands of air travelers every day are testing out their new tempurpedics in the freakin' tower. And the FAA hasn't fired anybody, despite numerous instances of this happening all over the country. I guess they are just going to load these clowns up with Vivarin and No-dose and ask them to wash it down with a little Red Bull and that will be that. Hell,they even let the First Lady's plane get too close to another jet just last week. One report even had a guy leaving the tower and napping out in his car!! I wonder what a pilot thinks when he contacts the tower for landing instructions and nobody answers -"oh yeah, Fred's on tonight, he said to try him on his cell phone and let it ring a few times?"
Listen guys, WAKE UP, drink more Starbuck's, take a leak on the floor in the tower if you have to, but don't take your eyes off that little screen -it's not a damn playstation.
