Just get up and quit you say. OK..Let's do just that. Four pm on a weekday afternoon, and the whole lot of dispatchers have all found other "fair paying jobs" at Pizza King, dispatching tasty pies throughout the land. Meanwhile, the railroad, in one swell foop, has found that there is no one except a few management folks to dispatch one of the busiest railroads in the country. The hours of service laws say that they can only work 12 hours at a time. But this is an emergency so they're there for perhaps 16 hours. Now they're fatigued beyond belief, and someone creates a head-on wreck. How long would it take the railroad to train and qualify hundreds of new dispatchers at once and keep the railroad running? <br />In order to be a train dispatcher, or any other craft in railroading you have to be dedicated. Dedication to duty doesn't include the phrase,"Just quit." As time has gone on in this society, many areas of employment have become overburdened with responsibility. Simplistic answers have never solved much, but created a whole lot more. Not necessarily for the positive. <br /> <br />Mitch
