samsooter, <br /> <br /> Yes, there are some dispatchers that really don't have much of a clue as to what they are doing. There is a character in my office that simply refuses to listen and is going to get someone killed if he's not pulled out of service for good. I spent one of my days posting with this person only to become horrified with the lack of understanding as to what this individual was doing. There was a particular incident that I went behind this person's back to a chief to prevent a possible accident. <br /> <br /> Anyways, there are also times that we dispatchers are at the mercy of the higher ups and maintenance issues. It's one thing to have a plan for running your piece of RR, it's another to see if it's actually going to work. There's just so many variables out there that can completely turn everything upside down. I by no means would want anyone to stop arm-chair quaterbacking because it keeps them involved in what's going. I have never hesistated to listen to a crew if they are willing to give me advice or suggest another move that is much better than the one I devised.
