I managed a company where I supervised 24/7 radio dispatchers, they sat in a tower where they could see over work boats in a harbor. One night I was in the area and I was listening to the radio traffic, a couple of pilots were chatting that they had not heard from the dispatcher for almost an hour, I tried calling on my cell phone, no answer. It wasn't out of my way so I decided to stop by and see where the dispatcher was.
I go up to the dispatch tower and I found my dispatcher and his GF, both naked going to pound town. No, I didn't fire him, just a warning, as I told him, "if you're going to screw your hot GF in the tower, you still have to answer the radio."
Job comes first, then you can come.
