I get the STRANGEST calls....

[shooter1201]

This morning, dispatch sent me to an 'assault' call, to clear it for EMS. So.....I get there post-haste, only to find out it ISN'T an 'assault' call, but.....

The elderly gentleman that called it in was misunderstood. Dispatch had thought the lady of the house had been assaulted, when in fact, her POTASSIUM level was all messed up. In HIS words, she was Out of salt... I kid you not...

ROTFLMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks Shooter, I needed that!

Oh... that was a good one.

I have one for the books. local mental casecame into the lobby to report a burglary. she is notorious for calling in reports of large groups of people in her garage, yard or basement. (mostly arabs) And she brought in pictures this time. Pictures of EMPTY SPACE. Needless to say, they did a psych hold. I could hear the EMS guys, "so, you see someone in that picture huh?... how many?"

LMAO. I worked at a psych hospital for a while. Quite an interesting job. I know it's not PC to get a laugh out of their behavior, but it can make a long day seem much shorter.
This one woman used to get up real close to your face, look into your eyes and say, "You have the nicest shoes." Another older woman used to scoot around the tile floors in her diaper. She'd sit in her doorway and scoot out a little, see you, then push herself backwards into her room. This one man used to run around with a butterfly net and catch falling stars. They were the cute ones. A lot of the rest were just MEAN.

What a crazy world. Shooter, did you get the lady a bananna??? I love walking into the mental hospital. The uniform is quite the magnet.

[Mrs. Fish]

[Joseph]
