Random thoughts, occasional rants, illuminating commentary, and an odd story now and then from the world of 9-1-1 dispatching. All this and more from a gay liberal atheist living in California’s Bible belt. I recently married, so MAGA beware! I’m your worst nightmare! Some names have been omitted to protect the innocent, but the guilty will be hung out to dry!

“(dismissive) Ok”

ring ring… same conversation, without the groggy, but still with the annoyed and dismissive.
This afternoon: ring ring “Hello?”
“Is Tracy there?”
