Re: Not Sued, Not Fired
by London EMD
Just got off a hell of a night shift in London Control. Can't remember when I last had so many selfish/stupid people demanding (yes, I do mean demanding) an ambulance for the most stupid things. What made it so much worse was the fact that we were holding 'genuine' Cat-A calls because we were so overloaded with calls. The only people who piss me off more than the stupid ones (like the 50 year old woman who called because she was having a heavy period) are the bare-faced liars (like the young guy who's girlfriend had a stomach ache, called back all of 7 minutes later demanding to know where the ambulance was then, not liking the reply, insisted she was uncons and not breathing despite me being able to hear her moaning dramatically in the background). I really feel bad when I send these "Cack-As" to crews. There really should be some covert way we can let crews know on the screen when it's a pile of sh*t, I'm thinking of putting a subtle ^ symbol in the special instructions box by way of apologising to the crew for sending them a load of rubbish.
