I know that I could NEVER work in a 911 dispatch center. My grandmother was a 911 dispatcher and the stress involved is beyond anything else.

It's the old squeaky wheel getting the grease. The good/great dispatchers rarely get recognized while the screw ups are plastered all over the news.

Are Prof. Gates and his "Bud Buddy" President Obama planning to double-team Crowley at the White House?

Does Crowley get to bring along a friend?

So this dispatcher screwed up because he came to the conclusion the house was being broken into...even tho his instincts probably told him otherwise.

BTW, I didn't detect a sense of urgency or panic in the woman's voice.
