playlist and listen live on the free iHeart app. Got
anything good?
Speaker 3 (00:19):
Hey, this is the Christian O'Connell show podcast.
Speaker 2 (00:27):
Yes, I'll chat to a guy who really enjoys his
job and he's this. At the end of this week
he marks twenty years of working out at Tullamarine in
the air traffic control demartment. Oh cool, amazing job. Right,
sounds really interesting and I was fascinated by it. How
does it all work? Even the fact that he told
me they they obviously operate shifts and they had staggered
(00:49):
shifts because he said, we can't all start the same
time and yawn at the same time. So I thinkure
that maybe we need to start like ten minutes like
staggered starts. Yep, So we're yawning at different moments at
the show, nold or more yawning at like quarter to
eight or anything like that. So they have staggered smarts.
But I love chat to people who enjoy what they're doing.
(01:09):
Obviously my word, they're not. Everyone loves what they're doing.
But maybe you might get to a job that you
do enjoy or some people are just doing a job
and what they really enjoy is a part time and
a little hustle they do, or a course they're doing.
You know how we find lives in our lives and
meaning and that is a very sort of shiftable thing.
But if you actually are listening to this and you're
like this guy I met yesterday who really loves his job,
he said, look, it's the same thing every day, because
(01:30):
whatever you do, it is roughly the same thing if
you do, but there's different variety.
Speaker 1 (01:34):
And he said, each day is a puzzle.
Speaker 2 (01:36):
Things are happening and he has to respond, he has
to deal with something now, and also aware what does
that mean in ten minutes time with the sequencing and
stuff like that.
Speaker 1 (01:43):
You can only imagine right now.
Speaker 2 (01:45):
What they're looking at all these planes coming in and
there's all then he said, also, it's not just the
scheduled flights, it's the stuff like say the air ambulance
or the police. They need priority clearances. You know, well,
actually you've got to wait ten minutes, but then you
can't turn the wait ten minutes. But then if they're
grounding planes or just said, you can start to move
on now from stand onto runway you now have to
(02:07):
hold because they're taken off front.
Speaker 4 (02:09):
Of high pressure.
Speaker 1 (02:11):
Yeah, it was. It was just fascinating. I wonder how
you even get.
Speaker 4 (02:13):
Into that, like you study it. I had a girlfriend
whose sister did it. Yeah, you do a course. I
don't know how long it was, but I remember when
she was graduating and she works out at the control
tower at Tullomarine.
Speaker 3 (02:25):
Right.
Speaker 4 (02:26):
Yeah, fascinating, like just absolute high pressure, cutthroat, can't make
a mistake. I can't even imagine.
Speaker 2 (02:32):
Well, I said that, someone said it's a high pressure job,
and he said, but would you say your job is
high pressure?
Speaker 1 (02:38):
I went no, no, Now, he said, but other people
would be terrified.
Speaker 2 (02:42):
You've got to get in front of her microphone, and
you know there's all those decisions you have to make
down for most people, and talking live with no script
through our states terrifying. I've got a friend of mine
who's the chief and ethetist of a major hospital. That
job to me would be oh my god, the responsibility. Yeah,
you know, he said, it's just the way I'm wired.
Speaker 1 (03:00):
I like doing this.
Speaker 2 (03:01):
Yeah, he said, It's like my brain is like there's
two hard drives. There's now and then there's ten minutes time.
So it's the way something people are put together. So
if you enjoy what you're doing for a job, give
me a call.
Speaker 1 (03:12):

Speaker 5 (03:56):
I haven't changed you down. Why would I change you down?
Speaker 1 (03:57):
No? No, No, I mean the radio. I think I could
hear myself the room.
Speaker 5 (04:03):
It's right because my daughter wants to listen to it.
Speaker 1 (04:05):
Okay, all right, God, there's a lot going on right now.
We've got one I want to hear one of these
y off. Turn the radio down, Jimmy years ago, every
Coller I turned the radio down. You've got the old
howl around with all that.
Speaker 2 (04:17):
All right, So first of all, Michelle, what's the name
of your daughter listening into this?
Speaker 5 (04:20):
Ella?
Speaker 1 (04:21):
Ella? How old? Is that a beautifulname?
Speaker 4 (04:22):

I thought you're going to say that next week October.
Speaker 5 (04:36):
Anyway, You always.
Speaker 2 (04:38):
Just trying to reach to that next birthday, aren't you.
And then when you get to our age, it's just
trying to slow it down and you reach them back
to the other one.
Speaker 1 (04:45):
Michelle, Okay, what do you do? You sound like a
bowder laughs.
Speaker 5 (04:49):
I'm a swimming teacher.
Speaker 2 (04:50):
Oh I bet you're a great swimming teacher. Bet the
kids love they learning to swim.
Speaker 5 (04:53):
Yes, I teach babies all the way up to squad kids.
So yeah, so great range of ages. But yeah, some
of them are just absolutely crazy in the water. But
the best part about it is when you think, oh
my god, these kids are never ever going to get
this and then all of a sudden they're swimming.
Speaker 1 (05:07):
Ah bad.
Speaker 2 (05:09):
Actually it's such a joyous thing, isn't it do to
learn to swim as well?
Speaker 1 (05:12):
Now, tell me about babies. How do you teach a
baby to swim?
Speaker 5 (05:16):
Well, we teach babies from three months old, so it's more.
Speaker 2 (05:18):
I mean before I moved here, we always just to wonder,
why would you dominate in the poors? So it always
does at every Olympics. Now I know why. It's those babies.
Speaker 1 (05:27):
I need to tell them.
Speaker 2 (05:28):
Back in England, you get them at three months, as
soon as they come out the mum, you take them
to start doing.
Speaker 5 (05:35):
Laps at that age though, I mean because they've been
in the womb with mom. When they're going under the water,
they have that natural reflex to close their mouths.
Speaker 1 (05:43):
You're right, you're right. In fact, don't even wait until
they're born.
Speaker 2 (05:46):
Start training through a megaphone up against a pregnant lady's stomach.
Speaker 1 (05:51):
Yeah, two nuts, brushstroke.
Speaker 5 (05:53):
Now, yes, that age, it's more about them getting used
to the water and lots of stuff. So we play
games and sing songs and lots of stuff. But yeah,
some of them are absolute characters.
Speaker 1 (06:02):
I bet that now Michelle, how long you've been doing that?
Speaker 5 (06:05):
About nine years?
Speaker 1 (06:06):
Nine years? And what were doing beforehand?
Speaker 5 (06:09):
I was a chef and then stay at home mom,
so are you?
Speaker 1 (06:13):
And then what made the change?
Speaker 5 (06:15):
Well, I was there taking the kids for saying the
same home mum. I've taken the kids for their swimming lessons,
and then they all shortest teachers and they were like, oh, well,
I think you make a good swimming teacher. And I've
always loved being in the water, So yeah, I bet you're.
Speaker 2 (06:28):
A great teacher. And if people listen right now and
they're thinking, oh my god, my kids need to learn
to swim, they need a great teacher like you, Michelle,
how can they find out more about what you do.
Speaker 1 (06:36):
You've got your own business.
Speaker 5 (06:38):
No, I actually work for somebody I work at in
Greensboro in Van Duck's Swimming Academy. So yeah, and we
think we teach the kids without using any swinging aid,
so no noodles, no kickboards, but we want the kids
to be as independent in the water as possible as possible.
Speaker 1 (06:54):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (06:54):
I remember how I learned to swim. My dad just
pushed me into deep I'm not sure that's the way
your modern technolgy to do it now. Modern coaching does
it now, but then it was very really well sink
or swim son. Michelle real joy talking to you as well.
Thank you very much for coining in it and call
us back in October so we can say happy birthday
to your daughter. All right, David Diary, circle back to it.

can target every pest that can be an issue to anyone.

to swim, they need a great teacher like you, Michelle,
how can they find out more about what you do.

Speaker 5 (06:38):
No, I actually work for somebody I work at in
Greensboro in Van Duck's Swimming Academy. So yeah, and we
think we teach the kids without using any swinging aid,
so no noodles, no kickboards, but we want the kids
to be as independent in the water as possible as possible.

Yeah.
Speaker 2 (06:54):
I remember how I learned to swim. My dad just
pushed me into deep I'm not sure that's the way
your modern technolgy to do it now. Modern coaching does
it now, but then it was very really well sink
