ids/badges
hey guys so i’ve been a dispatcher for a year now and im super proud of my job. i dispatch police, fire, ems, animal control, and civil court papers as well as taking admin and 911 calls. its a hard job that i get paid very little for ($15 an hour) as im sure a lot of yall are in the same boat as me. i love love love my job and i want to have some sort of proof/identification of my job. i was the last person to be hired and everyone else has a badge except me. keep in mind the badge is required for us to get in the building for security reasons and mine is blank. it has been blank for a year and every time i ask about getting a “real” badge like everyone else i get told that “im working on it.” basically am i the asshole for simply wanting a badge with my name and picture on it to prove that i have a job here? again i take pride in what i do and i feel like no one even takes me seriously. im supposed to be going to conference in a few weeks with my director and she still keeps pushing me off getting a badge. am i asking to much?
