Not me. I wouldn't want to spend hours a day staring at a computer screen.
Oh, that's what I do on Y!A.

I am one (18 yrs) and you don't just 'sit in front of a screen all day. There are Centers and Approach controls that do use radar screens to separate traffic, and towers where you look out the window (at great sunrises & sunsets) and visually seperate airplanes.
It can be very rewarding and sometimes stressful.. but overall lots of fun. If you sit in front of your computert or X box you probably spend more time there than a controller does daily.
The job can be very intricate & isn't for everyone- but it is never the same day to day. Most controllers like thier job ( not necessary thier employer though). & find it very rewarding. :)
