Your most memorable experience as an ATC?
When I left my previous position, the high school that I was contracted with surprised me at the last basketball game that I covered for them with a plaque and a speech by the high school principal in front of the entire audience, saying thank you for my ten years of service to their school. This was unexpected but very much appreciated as an ATC.
