the 'please call me now' is what always kills me on these....you think you're gonna talk someone into working after they told you to get bent?


You can always tell when somebody is a crap people-manager.

When I was a dispatcher I was often attacked for being "too nice" and giving my guys choices about who they wanted to drive/where they wanted to go.

Strange how those same guys (including several who wouldn't lift a finger for anyone else) I was "too nice" to would literally run through a wall for me when I got stuck and asked for help. (which was rare)

Unless it's wartime military and I can shoot you for insubordination, I have NO WAY to MAKE another person do anything.

Literally run through a wall?

What line of work were you in?

Were you working for this lot?

As a former driver with an awesome dispatch team, thank you!
