In some states, the Guard could have been charged with misuse of public resources, endangering responders or just plain old making a false report. I've found that we can't always rely on the information we get from our Dispatchers as they may not have all of the pertinent facts as well. As far as the Chief goes, in my Department, he would be given a few days off to cool down. We need to remember that every call like this is an opportunity to educate the less intelligent that provide job security for us all.<br />Triple JAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4026214128770026952.post-74688678953246614352009-05-07T21:20:00.000-07:002009-05-07T21:20:00.000-07:00sometimes the callers leave the part out that woul...sometimes the callers leave the part out that would cancel the call until the responders are almost there.Jessyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14192734726269412185noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4026214128770026952.post-47392873303844576212009-05-07T13:42:00.000-07:002009-05-07T13:42:00.000-07:00WTF!!!
Why wasn't that call stopped at 9-1-1?
T...WTF!!! <br /><br />Why wasn't that call stopped at 9-1-1?<br /><br />That is a police issue not a fire issue! When someone or something is on fire in the building then it become a fire issue. When the fire alarm is going off then its a fire issue. <br /><br />Someone smoking in the building falls under police or local by-law officers jurisdiction. <br /><br />OMG! The stupidity of some people. <br /><br />I am glad the Chief laid into the Campus Security Officer, but his next call should have been to 9-1-1 Supervisor to explain to him/her that fire trucks don't go screaming down the road for someone smoking in a building, that is why we have police officers.<br /><br />ERG!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4026214128770026952.post-35257125560601570042009-05-07T12:10:00.000-07:002009-05-07T12:10:00.000-07:00Stupidity is our job security, Brother...Stupidity is our job security, Brother...The Road Doctorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07670122372040160847noreply@blogger.com
