My partner and i got back from a call last night late. when we climbed into the truck my partner sat on the mic (which he threw on the seat on scene and this is what transpired.

My partner:so what do you think of the new dispatch lady.
Me:shes nice kinda of mother like though as far as an attitude.
My Partner: really...i think she's kind of a BI#$H.
Dispatch: Mic check all units
My partner:uhhhh......(click)

Yeah he caught some crap today from the supervisor and had to apologies to the dispatch lady...i still think that were probably gonna be doing transports for the whole rest of the week.;)

(address will be made up) but however call came in from our regional dispatch to 1321 Prairie Park Lane for a (insert random age here) lady with N/V and diarrhea for the day feeling dehydrated. When dispatch confirmed the address over the radio she stated it was "1321 Diarrhea.... i mean Prairie Park...etc funny as hell to hear. We could hear the other dispatchers laughing hysterically in the background.

There we were...Lincoln Nebraska...1980...

Mednet comes on, man's voice says "10-10-10, Rescue and Engine One to 9such and such address), man down, not breathing".

We all cluster 'round, because, a., this isn't a voice we know, b., we don't know this address (one guy's scanning two maps feverishly), and c., if it is for us, we want to beat the FD there because they had a habit of hyperinflating stomachs, declaring victory and driving off. We're slowly going ape doo doo when we hear a unit 10-4 as "Lewis and Clark Engine One 10-8".
(What was that? What county?!).
"Helena Fire copies".
I'm chuckling. That turned out to be the first of many horrendous nights of "skip" radio; we were picking up Helena Montana as though it were next door, and could barely read our units across town. (That summer we went on to receive transmissions from the Florida Highway Patrol and a Spanish language transmission we dubbed "Tijuana Meds").

The other day, we got a call to a location that they didn't bother to mention was a Dialysis center.

All of a sudden, one of the cops comes over the radio and goes:

"Hey, we just got here. The patient seems pale and oh crap - - wait - - uh oh - - yeah - - yeah, we got some bleeding from an unknown orifice. Hold on, I'm going in for a closer look. Yeah - - I have no idea where this is coming from. ETA?"

:glare: Those tricky ones.

My partner and I were posted when we heard this call go out to another unit.

Dispatch: Unit 9XX.
9XX: Go ahead.
Dispatch: Unit 9XX, priority 1 to XYZ for the child not breathing.
9XX: 10-4.
{Insert about 3 min.}
9XX: We're out, looking.
Dispatch: 10-4.
{Insert about 30 seconds.}
9XX: Ummm, dispatch, could you please confirm our call information?
Dispatch: Ummm, XYZ for the child not breathing. Why?
9XX: Well, it looks like our patient is going to be a DOG not breathing, not a child.
{All we heard after that was dispatch click the mic, the decide not to say anything for about a minute, when they released the unit from the call. Needless to say, no one from dispatch or the crew could talk without laughing.}

here is a funny one. i was dispatching one night for our local fire/ems dept when a call came in for a structure fire at approx 0300hrs. so i do a group page and tell them "attention all ****** firefighters, we need you to 10-22 to the station for a structure fire.
and to think i have been a firefighter since 2003. LOL

"Med 2, Engine 41 your responding to a 27 year old F patient who is complaining of being punched in her face and now her knee is bleeding." :wacko::wacko::wacko:


Ummmm.... How hard to you have to punch someone in the face for the force to be transferred to the knee and make it bleed?????

...I heard this one over the radio to another unit a few years ago (I'm paraphrasing):

"....respond to **** for the 40 y/o male complaining to burns to his back secondary to his wife ironing his shirt while he was wearing it..."


I coundn't even make that up on my worst day!
