My 5150 World: A Vicious Circle
http://5150world.blogspot.com/2007/09/vicious-circle.html
Friday, September 14, 2007. The entire police department received. The following email, which began like this:. Hostile Work Environment/Sexual Harassment Prevention training and Taser. Deployment training will be conducted on Friday.". That's as far as I went, and I just couldn't stop laughing. Are they combining those classes? Are they going to taze. The people who are sexually harassing. And wouldn't that in effect. A hostile work environment? I take it back! I take it back! View my complete profile.

My 5150 World: I am So Proud
http://5150world.blogspot.com/2007/10/i-am-so-proud.html
Tuesday, October 02, 2007. I am So Proud. Here is a picture of my brother Jim. He sent the picture from his cell phone, with the text, "New bike, new ticket." [Wiping away a tear] I'm just so darn pround. [Sniff]. Is it just me, or is the CHP officer a bit. fluffy for an officer? Wow, those CHP bikers really do dress like Eric Estrada, huh? I keep coming back, looking for updates. But that pic of your brother is still at the top of the page. Just want to share the following:. View my complete profile.

My 5150 World: Me Talk Real Good
http://5150world.blogspot.com/2007/09/me-talk-real-good.html
Thursday, September 13, 2007. Me Talk Real Good. The problem with going one entire month without working, is that I get rusty. I get my rhythm. Back pretty quickly but sometimes, I just make an A$ of myself. I had sent officer M to a call, that seemed to be a single officer, kinda lame Citizen's Assist/Outside Agency Assist call. I then determined I should send a back up unit due to some additional information. So, I said:. Sigh, yes I am that talented a dispatcher. Thanks for the laugh! Close to Home PD.

My 5150 World: Let's Be Realistic
http://5150world.blogspot.com/2007/09/lets-be-realistic.html
Tuesday, September 11, 2007. I haven't had many shifts recently, hence my lack of posts. I just completed a class on Hostage Negotiations for Dispatchers. It was an awesome class; I really learned some great techniques that I will employ with my next suicidal caller. As for the validity of the class? Well, instead of 8 hours of how to handle a hostage taker or barricaded suspect, it could have been summed up in one brief. Rips the phone away from you and takes over." Seriously. Write soon, ME. Second, yo...

My 5150 World: Pop Quiz Hot Shots
http://5150world.blogspot.com/2007/09/pop-quiz-hot-shots.html
Saturday, September 22, 2007. Pop Quiz Hot Shots. First person to tell me why it is a CRIME that gas prices have reached $2.86 wins. the admiration of their peers. Hint: $2.61 would have been even funnier. Some times I feel like I'm being 261'd at the pump. At least we don't live in the Neatherlands where they are paying $6.48 a gallon. But then again, Venezuela is only paying $0.12 a gallon. Paraphrased) Thou shalt not commit sodomy. Paraphrased) Thou shalt not rape. And I don't even live there.

My 5150 World: Breastfeeding in Not a Crime
http://5150world.blogspot.com/2007/09/breastfeeding-in-not-crime.html
Wednesday, September 19, 2007. Breastfeeding in Not a Crime. I was thinking back to when he was a newborn and this story popped into my head. This may be one of those "you had to be there" situations, but really, when has that stopped me before? So we have a Sgt. who is a very good cop, but he is very strict with dispatchers. I was working an 8 hour shift and I asked the Sgt to please come into dispatch. Me: Sir, I need a 20 minute break. Me: Um, I am going to need a little more time than that. Sarge: Oh...

http://5150world.blogspot.com/2007/08/couldnt-have-happened-to-nicer-officer.html
Thursday, August 23, 2007. Couldn't Have Happened to a Nicer Officer. Let me begin this post by saying, even the very few officers that regularly. It is just she thought she was a complete bad a$ and treated others as if they were insignificant. Officer M: I'll be making an 1186 at- -OH MY GAWD! SEND FIRE AND MEDICS CODE 3 TO THE EVIL AIRPORT THERE HAS BEEN A HELICOPTER CRASH! Me: [In an extremely calm, level voice] Negative Officer M, please 1021 radio. SEND FIRE AND MEDICS NOW! And the radio clicks wen...

Wednesday, September 26, 2007. I'll write more soon. I only have a moment or two, so I would like to share a couple of quick ones:. Said by my favorite salty officer when clearing a barking dog complaint:. Me and the dog reached an understanding, and he agreed to my terms. Advised, cooperative. 10-8". I'll be out with a couple of independent strawberry entrepreneurs. The mic to take a huge relieved breath, the officer said,. That's all great, but where am I going? I forgot to tell him where to go! We Can...
