Sometimes I hate people

So due to my knee surgery I have been working inside the last 3 months, which means answering the phone calls and dealing with people who come to the front desk. The following are true calls/people that we have dealt with the last few weeks.

We had a code 37 vehicle (stolen vehicle) being tracked by the airship (Helicopter) last week up in San Pedro. The airship hovers pretty low and stays in the area until there is a code 4 (suspect in custody, etc). Needless to say it was in the air for a little while. I answer the line at the front desk and a female caller askes me, "why is that helicopter over my house?" My answer is always, "Maam they are looking for possible suspects." Do I want to say, "Maam there is a possibilty that Charles Manson escaped from prison and he was last spoted in your area." Anyways she keeps complaining how loud the airship is and finally asks me, "Can you please have it fly away? This is not good for my quality of live. I have a really bad headache."
Nice..lets put citizens and officers lifes in danger because she had a headache!

Yesterday we had a deaf guy painted like pappa smurf hanging 30 feet off of a bus stop over the 110 freeway with a sword...needless to say the entire division was there...due the bus stop being on the 110 freeway they shut the freeway down..so we all know what happend..TRAFFIC. We started getting calls of people saying there were stuck on the freeway..what did they want us to do? Beam them off the freeway? I got a call of a lady that wanted to go through the crime scene tape because she had to go home and walk her dogs. I tried explaining that the tape means that there is a crime scene there..she didn't care and was pissed off...that went on for over 7 mins on the phone...my desk partner got a call from a lady who asked if we could send a unit to her car that was stuck in traffic because she had perishable foods in her car. She wanted LAPD to deliver her food!

I swear I am not making this up.

Bath Time Again

Now that he can sit up on his own he has been taking baths in his own little bath. The entire bath all he wants to do is suck the bath water...either from his toy or the wash cloth.

Time Flies

Time sure is flying by. It helps when you are stuck at work for 13 hour days...Kai's latest is sitting up and now he can kinda clap his hands. Of course he now has graduated to baby food which means he has also graduated to man shits. Here are a few pics of him from the alst few weeks:
