  • @fizwizx Haha I'd have to pass it's to cold up there!!

  • @POPODISPATCH Ouch. Come to Illinois.

  • @fizwizx wish I could find the state where you get that pay! I must love wht I do I make 1/2 of that

  • The work is easy, the stress that goes along with it is not always as easy, you will love or hate the job. I love it!!

  • @AsheOfHeaven Is this job hard im signing up for a class where i get a certificate atm. So basically when you get a call you type it in a computer and it sends the information to a office?

  • My work  ;-)

  • Well said!

  • Had this job for about 11 years now. It's very satisfying when you save a person's life.

  • @PrinceNippy You don't have to be a police officer to work as a dispatcher. There is a certificate program you can take that trains you to work as a dispatcher. Pay is around 40 - 45k start depends on state. Try a site called blueline just google it for jobs. GL!

  • I wanna be come a dispatcher!
