I kinda forgot that these boards existed...
anyhoo
I was driving the medic truck during a BLS intercept; this wacker with a blue light special was following me and kept coming up to my rear bumper. Looked like he was trying to see if there was anyone in the back. It was raining and still a little dark, about six in the morning, hard enough to see through the greasy windshield in their junker so I move toward the console so his head lights weren't in my face from the mirrors. And he comes up on my bumper again, so I just say to myself, but aloud "get off my f*cking tail a**hole, your blinding me, christ what the he** is it with these wackers". And suddenly the truck falls back about four lengths of the ambulance. So again, talking to myself, I say "Gee thanks, now if you could pull your head outta yet a** and turn the headlights down". He turns his headlights down. So I say "wow, he can read my mind", and I sit back up in the seat. Second I move I hear "Unit XX to Ambulance XXX", I answer... Unit XX, I apologize, no I can't read your mind. Me, Okay, I'm not sure I understand. Unit XX, Are you sitting on your mic?.
oops
:huh:
We once had a two man crew on a standby at a county fair motorcycle race. One of the guys had a walkie on his hip while they were sitting in the front of the rig watching the race. He had leaned over to rest on the center console and inadvertently keyed up his walkie. Now mind you we have a repeater system so all over our county & out in scanner land everyone got to hear " crew 1-Have you seen how wide Tina's butt is getting. crew 2--- Yea she should put a wide load sign on that thing! "
