They say that air traffic control is stressful work and I guess it is for some people. It did require a lot of concentration but that never bothered me much. I could keep the position, bearing and altitude of a couple of dozen aircraft in my head without

That’s not just a
trinket on her finger,
that’s a rock, a fortress,
a castle. No one
can scale those walls
