Also, it's the week before July 4th, I would expect most in the GO are on a much deserved vacation!
Surely you jest. I don't doubt they're on vacation, but 'much deserved?' Have you ever tried to get anyone over there to call you back (no one is EVER near their phone)? Heck, even the dispatchers 'step away from their desk' approx 70-80% of the time! And that's when they are at work! Payroll has been so bad at their job lately that they send whole teams over to the airport to help sort out the mess. It looked like registration at any college pre-internet!
