My husband is actually a dispatcher, so I agree that it's a very under appreciated field! It's a hard, thankless job, so any appreciation is welcome :) My husband also got a kick out of this picture because he's southern and misses Waffle House dearly since we moved to the West Coast.

Please give him my genuine thanks for his service! I also have people I love that work in the field and see behind the curtain so to speak, so I do get a little excited when I can share with others and praise this thankless but very critical and understaffed job in our society. I hope his 2020 wasn't as bad as the people I knew and he managed to avoid getting sick in those small offices.

But yeah waffle house is a great joke for this too I think! Actually perfect, deal with the worst of shit, no backup or authority to shut down shitty ppl, and always open even when conditions are unsafe.

He says thank you, and loves the appreciation 😊
