Question for ASA dispatchers

[propsarebest]

Based on my days working in CS/Ramp there...those are words I thought I never see together. Glad they seem to have figured things out.

Ya know..in the spirit of the dispatcher brotherhood and in attempt of finding some "best practices"... perhaps a few of us should visit ASA OCC and some of you ASA guys could come out to SGU for a shift or two and see if we can learn anything from each other. And, if nothing else, its good excuse to get a beer with some fellow 'spatchers. Just a thought.

...but there aint no beer in SGU

True...but some of us have mastered the art of bootlegging from Mesquite, NV.

Then there's that whole trying to non-rev into SGU thing. Practically impossible. CDC is an option again, though. SNICKER!!!

Finally someone with a great idea... Vegas it is ...
on a serious note though I do think it would be a great idea to office swap for a few days.

I'll second that! Hopefully, with the new leadership will come a true effort to find and implement "best practices". Change is slow to come, but that does not satisfy our desire for "instant gratification". Unfortunately the leadership that came with the DL aquisition were slowly going down the road to find "best practices", but it seemed that the approach they were taking was "do it our way" which neither equated to a "best practice" nor made sense in our operation most of the time. Let's hope that any future changes are with the operation and that labor relations might also be a forethought instead of an afterthought.

Are you sure the public could handle a show about "behind the scenes in airline dispatch"?
