The last time I lost my cool with a dispatcher was in St Louis, I called in on the 800 line and he flips out, cussing and ranting................because I didnt call the local number. Being only 10 miles from the office I hung up and drove to the yard and found my little potty mouth buddy. Never got the chance to thump his head but before they fired me I remodeled and re-sized his cubicle.

I'm not a dispatcher but was the 3rd shift admin. I had a new driver that had never ran the route, and the guy who normally ran it was doing the 2nd half of it. I knew the boss man wouldn't answer his phone and if he did he would tell me to call the other driver, so I just cut out the middle man and called the driver. I knew he would be sleeping so he could do his leg, but he did answer and helped the new driver. Later that night he called me and gave a nice arse chewing.

Next night the new driver didn't call him like he was supposed to. 2 hours past the time he was supposed to call, I got a call and got my arse chewed again. I told him after that, I would be responsible for calling him at the correct time and that way if things went wrong at least I would deserve the arse chewing. He apologized and after that, I called him every night until he got back on his normal leg of the run. We got along great after that and he would call me every night just to talk.
