911...From the Chair of a Dispatcher So if any of my fellow dispatchers read this, I assure you I
am not giving away any top secret information, I will not
disclose any names or give any specific details. I really
just need to let off some steam!!! Type...get feelings off
my chest, vent, all of the above. Since my husband is asleep
and isn’t here for me to express myself...which leads me to
a question...in my job of 911 dispatching there are tons of
highs and lows, politics, and drama! Is it better to have
your other half there to talk to you and just let you vent
or is it bad to "take the job home?" I don’t know.
Part of me feels that I would love my husband to listen to
my feelings and bounce ideas off of, then another part of me
gets upset when he tells me that all I do is talk about
work! I don’t have anything else to talk about!

New eastbound lane planned for Hwy 76 An additional eastbound lane will be constructed on Hwy 76
from Indian Point Road to Hwy 265, the Missouri Department
of Transportation (MoDOT) announced Tuesday, April 15. Work
is scheduled for Monday and Tuesday in each of the next
three weeks, April 21-22, April 28-29 and May 5-6. One lane
each direction will remain open to traffic throughout the
project. Silver Dollar City is funding the majority of the
project. The theme park is committing $337,000 towards
construction of the new eastbound lane. "We all would
love it if MoDOT could afford to pay for this project, but
they don't have the funding," stated Brad Thomas,
general manager of Silver Dollar City. "Providing this
funding is making it happen in the short term."
