Does everyone else get calls like these once in a while?
Got a call tonight on the emergency line...
Me: "Police emergency, your location?"
Female: "uhh hello...hello"
Me: "Hello, what is your emergency"
Female: "I'm looking for ______ Public Safety"
Me: "Ms, same department, what's your emergency"
Female: "I am looking for _____ Public Safety"
Me: "Mam this is a police line, what is your emergency"
Female: "Um well.... I... uh..."
Me: "Ms what is the problem? Is this an emergency?"
Female: "YES!!"
Me: "Ok, what's the problem"
Female: "Well, my train is late and I am supposed to check in at 9:00 pm and we are not going to get there on time ... "
Me: "MAM that is NOT an emergency call back at this number ____"
Minute goes by and her number comes on the caller ID
Me: "______ this line is recorded, So what is supposed to happen at 9:00pm?"
Female: "Hello is this _____ Public safety"
Me: "Ms I just got off the phone with you, what is supposed to happen at 9:00pm?"
Female: "Well were supposed to check in with ___ but our train is late"
Me: "OK"
...long pause...
Me: "Ms....what would you like the police to do about it?"
Female: "Um.... uhh.... I don't know"
Me: "Uhhhh huh, so you called the police because your train is late"
Female: "Yes"
Me: "Call this number____"
Just when I thought when people called for the Greyhound schedule was the thickest people got!
