[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 127055, member: 1233"] Janet, not being able to find the house is nuts! Haven't any of these people EVER delivered pizza??? My dad is friend's with several of the sheriff's deputies here. They say the ambulance and police/fire people who can find places mostly had delivery jobs at some former time. (Of course, one of them was a delivery "dude" for a local dealer, but we don't mention THAT!) I don't think it ever occurred to me in a time when I needed to call 911 that anyone might ever WANT to listen to it. I am usually so in the moment, scared for 2 or more of us, that it never crossed my mind. Hmmm. Did I tell y'all my niece called 911 a few weeks ago? She had been in the bathroom and the toilet backed up. She is 4. They had learned about calling 911 in an emergency that week at school. So she went out and got her mommy's phone. When her mom heard her talking she just thought she was playing. Here they MUST go to every call, in case it is someone being abused or whatever. So when the officer showed up my XSIL was very confused. But my niece told her right away what was wrong - and was quite upset that the officer did not fix the plumbing!!! They had a discussion in school the next day about what is and what is NOT an emergency!!!! Gotta love kids!!!! Susie [/QUOTE]
