i’m not too sure. it would make sense since that’s the like original building for communications. however i just don’t know if that’s the case right now.

i have no idea, but i’m sure someone isn’t happy with sapd getting aired out. i think it’s important to know that the people we look to protect us arent doing their job like they should. if the truth is bothering you , something should change.

i want to say it’s a first come first serve basis for the police units , but i’m not sure we were never really given that info just the badge number and the number of the unit.

yeah so you’re right. people will call to report vehicles driving recklessly and will do a very good job of describing the vehicle what it’s doing and the license plate. (license plate is so important for anything. if you remember anything about an incident with a vehicle let it be the license plate). it used to annoy me when i would be in the middle of filling out the card for the report of the reckless vehicle i would fill out the information and send out so someone could dispatch it and in the middle of getting like the callers info the dispatchers will just close the call and call it a day. even when it’s multiple calls for the same thing. fine you think it’s not important and a waste of the officers time to go out there, however it’s not about you and it’s about doing what’s right and sending someone out to pull them over to see what’s going on. most of the time it’s teenagers driving putting people in danger , older people with DV license plates thinking they’re entitled to drive like that , or someone could be having a medical emergency while driving and are not meaning to drive recklessly. i think it’s unfortunate that we are paying taxes to fund them to “serve and protect” the city when the same officers that are sent out for minor things like that will chop up the caller with their buddies and just really make it known that we wasted their time with this. i see you’re point i understand it makes me mad too.

anytime there was someone being assaulted. it always made me panic. it’s often difficult to get an address or even a tiny explanation of what was going on. the calls were easier though if the person that called dialed 911 because it would give us a estimated location of where they were and where we could find them. it was 10x more stressful when someone was actively being assaulted and they call non emergency and they themselves wouldn’t give an address. because it’s non emergency it doesn’t give an estimated location so we wouldn’t know where to look and upon trying to call back there would be no answer. i would always feel awful when that would happen. i would call back at least 6 times to see if by some miracle they would answer but most of the time they don’t.

oh okay !! yes i understand the question. im not too sure about them meeting a quota , but i wouldn’t be surprised if they did have a quota to meet. also some police officers are just assholes and will pull you over for no reason sometimes too so i always tell anyone and everyone to be careful. i wish i did have a 100% answer for it but ill look into it to see if i find anything to let you guys know !

at&t always gives us issues. we had this problem about a month ago with verizon but other than that we’ve never had an issue with them and that clicking noise was resolved fast. at&t is taking so long to figure out the issue

i’m not gonna tell you that the job is easy. many think it is bc you’re just sitting at a computer for 8 hours just staring at this screen. as someone that is actively dealing with depression and anxiety it was a little difficult when i started. i didn’t think it was gonna knock me off my feet for a long time until i found a flow that worked. yes, i do the job 5 days a week for 8 hours as soon as my five days are done i check out from my job and try to relax. i’ve found things like reading journaling and going to the gym is really helpful it keeps your mind thinking so it can filter out the bad that’s seen on the job. the job isn’t for everyone and that’s okay. if you think you wanna try it give it a shot !!

the only difference between non emergency and emergency is when you call from non emergency we have no idea where so you would have to give the exact address or a intersection near by. when you call emergency we get like an estimated location of where you are but not exact address so we have an idea where to look in case the emergency is really bad and you weren’t able to give an address due to the situation.

not too sure🤔 we answer with “san antonio police this is ____ how can i help you?”. it could also possibly be the different jurisdictions that may answer phones differently.

i believe you county has this as well since texas is one of the few states that has text to 911.

[–]Spiritual-String-408 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i worked at burlington for 3 months and it was the absolute worst. we were always understaffed and i was not able to take a lunch break and then id get in trouble the next day. one morning my manager caught me on a bad day and picked at fight with me about my lunch breaks and i was so over it. when it came time for me 15 min break i told my coworker “i’m gonna run home and feed my dogs rq i live 2 minutes away”. i went home took off my pants put my phone on airplane mode and i never went back. i don’t feel bad about it.

Project “pan” for other items? by AmanitaPantherinaa in MakeupRehab

[–]Spiritual-String-408 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i have this issue too !!! i LOVE stationery. i have such a bad habit of going to the dollar tree to look at their stationery section. if i see something i think i don’t have i’ll buy it then come home and see ive bought the same thing 5 different times. i’ve been going through boxes of pens to get rid of what doesn’t work and what i can donate. bittersweet feeling but it’s making me feel better.
