If not for bad drivers, My services as dispatcher would not have been needed for the first 14.5 years of my employment (it was a traffic post where I worked).

IN my case I'm a fair ELECTRONICS tech by training, Thus I can occasionally trouble shoot electrical issues.. Since that is a very much related field.
