people just dont understand what dispatchers have to go thru on a daily basis...when you have to worry about not only about the public but also your emergency responders it puts alot of stress on a person...we (dispatchers) are considered a life line for both...so if you think that a dispatchers job is not important..remember that the next time you call in for help...who else you going to call...and I say yes do a story on the janitor at erlanger or any janitor for that matter of fact...if we didnt have them..then i guess your office..bathroom...breakroom..etc etc...would not get cleaned..because you obviously think these jobs are beneath you...and lord knows you would not do it.

The main objective for a dispatcher is to make sure the public is safe but most of all that he/she gets her officer or firefighters or even ems people home safe...a dispatcher job is hard to do..just wish the public could see what they do on a daily basis ..I'm a dispatcher and I agree most officers have a superman complex but they have to..that's what gets them thru the day..and yes they are everyday un-sung heroes ..way to go dispatchers keep up the good work..
