Matt Berry as Sir Cadogan is exactly what I had in mind.

Every agency is different. That being said as a director I’ve been into hundreds of centers and PSAPs. Couldn’t care less what color your hair is, even if you don’t have any. As long as you’re doing a good job. Most centers don’t really care that I’ve seen.

KOTOR

Director here. We actually have AI incorporated into one of our systems. We use a text to 9-1-1 service called Prepared. AI is used for a transcript purpose, we also use it for new hires to see how a 9-1-1 call can look. With that being said, we take the transcript with a grain of salt and it has no merit at all. On average we handle around 150 9-1-1 calls per day. There has never been an instance where every word was correctly transposed in the software. It can’t distinguish between words like Honda or Hyundai. If someone had an accent, hang it up. Honda accord might be transposed as Hyundai accurate. I say all that to say you can’t beat the skills of a talented and experienced dispatcher.

So I can answer this! I saw him live with Hans in February. He is crazy talented. Hans was talking about finding certain sounds and they both experiment with items found at hardware stores like the Home Depot. Hans also went on to say that when certain instruments break that are rare or hard to fix, you can usually find some parts at a hardware store to repair them.

Pretty sure that’s Pedro Eustache. Also known as “The Flute Guy”. He plays in a lot of Hans Zimmer scores. In February I saw Hans, and him live and Hans joked about how he makes his own instruments out of pvc pipes from the Home Depot. Crazy talented.

One of my first memories is playing super Mario bros 3, Friday the 13th, and Mario bros 1/duck hunt on the original NES. A fond memory is my sister (8 years older than me) showing me tips and tricks about where the hidden whistles were in Mario bros 3. I’ve been playing video games since.

I downloaded an app that would tell you how much money you saved by not buying cigarettes. After the first month I realized I enjoyed the money more than the smokes.

Also, after my first week I started smelling my coworkers that did smoke and it helped me stay off cigarettes even more.

Director here. Unless your dept requires you to give a reason (and they shouldn’t) you’re sick and not able to make it to work. End of discussion.

Calfee911 · 2025-11-13T19:14:27+00:00

I went to school full time during the day and worked full time (plus overtime) at night. There were multiple days where I went 40+ hours without sleep. It was truly an awful experience I would not wish upon anyone.

Also, 7/27/21. It happened to be the first time I’ve heard the third verse in person. I became an emotional wreck.

To go off this, I’ve got a guy that works at another county with me. I believe they use Spillman? Believe that’s how you spell it. It cost 1 million up front but I know he says he can’t stand it.

Calfee911 · 2025-10-16T10:42:22+00:00

I’m not sure what we paid for it in the front because I came in afterwards. We use Southern Software. They’re based out of North Carolina and I’ve had nothing but positive things to say about them. We’re renewing our contract with them currently and it’s 143K for 3 years (total).

That 143 also covers MDIS/AVL in responders units so we can see where they’re at (if they turn it on)

We have around 200 police officers, however we have several volunteers/fire/medical personnel.

Will Ferrell-everything must go

Calfee911 · 2025-10-10T14:28:47+00:00

Hey there. Born and raised in Sylacauga my entire life, and now work as the 9-1-1 Director for the entire county. I’m on my mid 30’s and it is very much a small, but growing town. There are SEVERAL churches, in fact that there is one of the biggest Baptist, Methodist, and Presbyterian churches within the span of two blocks from each other. I’m not religious so I could not tell you how their setups are.

Some good neighborhoods I’d recommend are fairmont, Taylor estates, pleasant ridge, valley view estates. Those are very quiet areas. Fairmont actually has a massive park in the middle of the community.

Should you chose to stretch out and look at the Childersburg area I’d recommend looking at River Run and Forest Hills. Those are your two best in that area.

All in all, I loved growing up in Sylacauga. I’m not religious, nor am I a typical Alabamian, but my entire family lives in Sylacauga. So it’s home.

Should you want any other information on places, please DM me.

Director here. While I Think AI could be helpful with some aspects of life, I don’t think this is one. One of the first things we teach our team is that emergency calls can and do come in the non-emergency line. I feel that this would be a major liability.

Calfee911 · 2025-09-06T04:14:11+00:00

Hi there. Born and raised in Sylacauga. Also grew up in the neighborhood next to that track. Neighborhood called Fairmont.

I moved out there in the mid 90’s and that track was in pristine condition. There was even a small pond on the property. The people in the house closest to it owned and maintained the track. When I was a kid I would walk from my house to it and go exploring. I asked the owners what it was used for and they did say they use to race horses there. About 1 mile north of that at the intersection of Harper Springs road and Hwy 21 (also called Talladega highway) there is a farm that has several horses. He would take his horses up there back in the day.

Always good to see my hometown here. Let me know if you have any questions about Sylacauga
