NEWS 911 operator
As someone who has actually dispatched police units, this dispatcher needs to be in another line of work. It is perfectly understandable they are doing an internal on him, and I understand there are other irregularities in his performance as a dispatcher. If someone reports they are being held against their will or have been kidnapped, you do not read them the riot act and saythey are wasting your time. This guy has no business handling emergency calls. Thank God he is not on a suicide hot line, he'd be putting people on hold.
syno, 911 calls are not handled by the telephone company, so the switching of the the telephone lines does not work. The 911 system is a police function. In Arizona, when one calls 911, the call goes to a Department of Public Safety dispatcher, who asks where you are, and routes the call to the local department. with the Enhanced System, they do not need to get your location as it is on the screen in front of them. They ask what is your emergency, so they know whether you need fire, ambulance or police assistance and can prioritize the call. The phone company provides the lines, period. Tthat silly broad in California should have been horsewhipped for having a nanny call 911 to have Gloria Allred removed.
