In a move that has left many scratching their heads, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has announced a partnership with the prestigious University of South Boondoggle to address the nationwide air traffic controller shortage. Yes, you read that right – South Boondoggle, home of the Fighting Sloths and the infamous “Dorm Room 101” class.
According to FAA spokesperson, Chuck McFluffy, the agency is confident that South Boondoggle’s top-notch aviation program will produce the next generation of air traffic controllers. When asked about the partnership, McFluffy had this to say: “We believe that the students at South Boondoggle have the skills and expertise necessary to navigate the chaos of our nation’s skies. Plus, their mascot is a sloth, so you know they’ll be able to handle the stress of the job.”
The collaboration between the FAA and South Boondoggle has already produced some interesting results. One student, Sally McSnail, shared her excitement about the program: “I never thought I’d be controlling airplanes while wearing pajamas, but here I am! Thanks, FAA!”
Not everyone is on board with the partnership, however. Local air traffic controller, Bob Smith, expressed his skepticism: “I’ve been in this industry for 20 years, and I can tell you that training air traffic controllers is no joke. I’m not sure if the students at South Boondoggle are up to the task.”
Despite the doubts, the FAA is forging ahead with the partnership, confident that South Boondoggle will be the solution to the air traffic controller shortage. Only time will tell if the Fighting Sloths can keep our skies safe and sound.
In the meantime, if you happen to fly over South Boondoggle, be sure to wave to the students in their pajamas – they’re hard at work keeping you on course.
