Lol... That's because he was commuting from MSP. And taking a flight LAS-HNL that landed at 0550 for a 0600 shift start time.
I suspect he showed up late one too many times and got let go rather than quit. That makes more sense.

No he never missed a shift or was late. More to the story to that. He is a good dispatcher.I suspect he showed up late one too many times and got let go rather than quit. That makes more sense.

I actually received quite a different version. But regardless, the point is that you can commute if it's feasible and you don't miss work or show up late as a result.

Is there anybody out there who started at Hawaiian and went directly to a legacy/major carrier on the mainland? I know of former HA dispatchers who left the island life to work at regionals in thoroughly unglamorous cities on the east cost. It's a decent first job simply because it is *A* job, but it sounds to me like a newly certified dispatcher is actually better off getting on with one of the regional carriers dba legacy brands in the contiguous states.
