EoC's World of Dispatching

[Suu]

Like I figured, it could be a few months between updates, but this is a good one:


We just took a call from a local police department requesting our K9 officer for a track.  The situation is that a guy dressed as Santa Claus just unslung a rifle from his back and robbed a bar.

Now that's proper holiday spirit. Was that guy from Tuscon?

Worse. New Bedford.

We just took an ambulance call for a woman who used mouthwash and is complaining of it burning.

I.  I just.

Hhhhhhh...

Arrest the mouthwash!

Got an ambulance call.  Nothing physically wrong with the guy.  He's taking the ride because he doesn't know what else to do, and he's in no right mind to think of something.  Hearing him screaming in the back, I'm not sure he even could think of anything.

He'd just fatally struck a pedestrian.

Sounds like a standard issue of shock to me.

Extreme limbic arousal.

Requires prefrontal lobotomy.

Highly surgical.

Ambulance call:  Patient swallowed a grape whole and is complaining of feeling like it's stuck in her upper asophagus.

They just informed two K9 officers their positions are being terminated.  They either have to become correctional officers or they're out of jobs.

One of them is eight weeks from retirement.

[Suu]

WTF. They have to do something for that guy.

[Richter]

That's fucked.

Hope the guy close to retirement get's the cushiest possible run as a corrections officer for his last 8 weeks.

[Jenne]

Ugh.  Signs of the times, I guess.   

[Eater of Clowns]

Wasn't done to save money.  Their positions were even posted as available before they were informed, with the assumption the department was actually growing.

Nope, staying the same, and going to some guys more likely to play ball a bit better.

I don't particularly like either of them, or care to work with them, but still, you just don't do that.

[Jenne]

Ah.  Politics, then.   THAT is a whole other ball o' wax.
