drfizzix, <br /> <br /> you'd be suprised about that too. the logical reaction of most crews is to just sit and wait, but some people get a little cranky when they gotta wait. one engineer i rode with, who works off our notorious piggy back pool, would throw the handset around when the dispatcher didn't answer him right away or told him he'd half to wait. needless to say this behavior and similar behavior by other engineers on the pool has lead the chiefs to threaten cutting the pool entirely and just making one "super pool" where all the pigs and freights are called from the same board. in a lot of terminals there is no seperate pool for piggy backs, but somebody's always gotta whine.
