Our dispatcher sucked. They were paid to dispatch PD and they treated all Fire calls as second priority over silly traffic stops. BS.

Was a career paramedic in the suburbs of Pittsburgh, as well as a flight paramedic for a short stint.

Moved to Virginia 3 years ago and am a Career Firefighter/Paramedic.

Lovin it!
