We spent three hours directing traffic on that call. Dispatch sent the power company to the wrong address then he drove all the way back to town before they corrected it when he got to the scene he spent five minutes there.

hey whats new? Im still getting a feel for things around here, but overall it seems like a nice place.

Mar 17, 2009
Daniel

It seems to be fairly easy to use, pretty straight foward. Theres just a lot.

Its going well over here, been slow the last coupla days.. Like zero calls slow.. Very unusual. How about over there?

Mar 18, 2009
Daniel

haha, that sounds exciting. About twenty minutes after I left the comment about no calls we got a medical.. so eh, I guess it was only modertatly slow.

Grass fires were never really my thing.. Sometimes it seems kind of pointless to try and put them out. Espcially when there isn't a house for another 4 miles.

Mar 18, 2009
Daniel

Ah, well at least with reported structures in dnager you get the nifty lights and sirens haha. Its a little more fast paced.

Have you guys had an unusal amount of house fires this year? It seems like we've gotten a higher number than we typically have. Although I guess that would make sense, what with all the forclosures and what not.

Really? What for? Running hot I mean.
