Why so complicated? Why must they say ALS 123 Post at 408? Wouldn't "ALS 123 post at first and main" work just as well, if not better? Plain English, right?

That's how we do it. "medic 121 post at Cook and I10"

We did the street names till a few months ago when someone had the bright idea to use mapbook grids instead. No one ever went to the wrong place when using street names. Now dispatch and crews get it wrong--but dispatch won't go back to the old way.

Sigh. To think my first company simply had predesigned posting locations called "Charlie spots."

I am certain that my personal hell is nothing but a string of early mornings, one right after the other.

I hate early mornings!!!!! Not a morning person at all. Why can't shift run from 0900-2100??? That'd be awesome!

I'm never going to live that down, am I? She was in the bathroom when I posted. It's not like I did it from right across the table.
