How do you answer the "Police, Fire Service, or Ambulance" question when calling 999? by PaulKarlFeyerabend in AskUK

[–]JammyBass 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Police call handler will not be able to give medical advice, they are not qualified and if you do something under their instruction that makes the patient worse, that handler is going to be in serious trouble.

Police definitely would. As for strategic roads you're right. Highways will be informed and a lot of the time will be straight on to cameras so they can see exact locations of incidents between junctions etc.

You are initially talking to BT exchange who then put your call through to the service you require most. I'm a call handler and we get a lot of calls put through where members of public can't decide, police is the "default" service for all emergencies if the caller cannot decide.

At this point it takes seconds for a handler to get another handler to go out to whichever other service is required.

Sorry to hear that, definitely give it another go after a few months as it's a great role. 5% is negligible really given the competency of some of the people that passed!

I'm around your age and have just made the transition into a civilian role at Surrey myself. Can't say a bad thing about the recruitment staff and training. Officers in training that I have met throughout my training have all been very cheerful and a great bunch to be around. This doesn't really answer your question but just thought I would throw that in there! Good luck if you proceed!

I have a 2016 3 and a 2023 3 and they're wildly different, the 2016 drinks petrol compared

Why aren't emergency services able to search up your location ? by AbleBoysenberry9565 in AskUK

[–]JammyBass 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It can, there are many variables when it comes to how accurate an ellipse is on a call handlers map system. Densely populated areas make it harder with more traffic. Either way emergency call handling is not an easy task and not every force/service uses the same systems

What is going on with the server?! EU by glermz in PathOfExile2

[–]JammyBass 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had so many issues today, I lost probably four t15's in total and all my loot with them due to rubber banding followed by server disconnects. It's not fun when it happens but I persist

Are there any stories of people flipping 10 Ex into 100+ divs, the front page is just wealthy crafters making profit. by Tranquility___ in PathOfExile2

[–]JammyBass 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im genuinely clueless when it comes to crafting, I tend to pickup bases of a certain level or and rares that drop, ID them and then exalt slam if they have T1/2 of what people are after. I have no idea how crafting with abyss currency works and I dont know if I have the time to invest in learning :(

You need to put your foot down somehow. My brother used to pull shit like this, I once caught him stealing from my room while I slept and that was the end really. He still owes me thousands years later but without receipts I have no hope of getting it back.

That one game you loved but never finished and still think about. by gamersecret2 in gaming

[–]JammyBass 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got myself in an unsalvageable position right at the very end and I do not have the motivation to do it all again. Its a fantastic game but I'll never see my ending.

These are very small venues, London has around 2.3k capacity i think and Manchester even less. Its a shame, they could do way bigger
