There's a world of difference between dispatch and crewing.
As a crewing bod you have to be very people orientated.
With aircrew, you have to be sympathetic, understanding, a good listener and be aware that
your desicions directly affect their lives.
As with dispatch there is a great deal of pressure to deliver workable solutions whilst
under a great deal of pressure, not to mention the legal aspects of your actions!
Either way, why not ask to 'sit in' for a couple of days on each side of the business.
At least that way you may get a clearer idea of where you want your career to go.
Best of luck.
