    The reason ATC is on the verge of collapse in the US is because Regan killed the union.

    Who would’ve thought letting bosses have their own way would lead to this. /s

    So the people who scream racial slurs when provoked? Makes sense for this administration.

    I read the article and I don’t quite see the line they took to get that gamers are the target applicants they want…

    Was it just the ability to sit in a chair and watch a screen for 8+ hours a day?

    Was it the outliers like those half dozen people who have platinum’d crimson desert already?

    The people who play rage bait being able to handle without cracking under direct pressure?

      So they probably don’t want gamers who yell at and punch their monitors? Well there goes my potential career.

      I vaguely remember reading something about ATC workers being on average really good at StarCraft 2.

      It’s just a large demographic…

      They need bodies at this point, any bodies.

      So they’re aiming at one of the largest demographics for younger generations.

      0.01% of video gamers, is more people than 0.01% of all tiddlywinks players.

      It doesn’t matter how well it connects, it’s just a large demo that watches a bunch of YouTube videos and will see the ads.
