Is it possible to use a queue inside event-listener in Laravel?

Question

Lets say I have a controller QuotesController from where I fire the QuoteCreated event which has a SendNotification listener. And I want to dispatch a queue named EmailToUser from that listener.

Of course I can dispatch the queue directly form Controller but can I dispatch it form a listener?

I have tied but getting this error Call to undefined method App\Jobs\EmailToUser::dispatch() — Sazzadur Rahman

@shuvrow use the global dispatch() helper method. Do not use $this->dispatch(). — jszobody

There is a global dispatch() helper method that you can use anywhere in a Laravel app!

dispatch(new SomeJob());

And yes you can do this from inside an event listener, or a queue job, or anything else.
