At least, that's what they told us in grade school.

Lately I've been giving some thought about looking into becoming an emergency dispatcher (or Communicator, as they say in Dane County HR). I know it isn't something where you just show up and they hand you a phone, so there are prereqs that I'd have to take care of. Also, they aren't hiring right now, so I have time to ponder.

So I have to give some thought as to whether it would be a job that I could do, a job that I could handle. I know that it would be high stress combined wih boredom. I know that the shifts would rather suck when I started. I'll probably start by making a pros and cons list.
