Dispatch is a career, just like being a pilot. It is not a foot in the door job when your career has stalled. Please do not take a dispatchers job if you do not want it.
We do not like being lied to before we hire you. We do not want to hear how you dream about flying and a desk job is beneath you after we hire you. We do not like training you for 6 months then watching all that hard work walk out the door once you get sniff of the cockpit. We do not like working all the extra hours to cover for you when you are gone. We don't want to start the whole process over again with another guy who swears he dosen't want to be a pilot.
you guys have absolutly no idea how many good people you screw over just to get your foot in the door.
