Work Gripe

I love how people find out we work 3 days a week and think we have an easy job. Technically I work 4 days a week..10 hour days..but it's not the hours that kick your ass it's the constant bullshi* we deal with. We had a traffic accident where the lady lost control of her Ford Explorer..hit a tree..rolled it and then hit a telephone pole..going down a residential street..needless to say she was going over 25 mph..and I found one of her golf clubs 5 houses away..her husband had major bleeding and there was globs of his blood everywhere (when blood settles it looks like jello)..from there we hustled over to help a unit with DCFS who were detaining a ladies kids because she tested positive for cocaine again..and all she could do was blame the worker (by screaming she was going to kick her ass over and over)..to another traffic accident..to a lady who called 911 because her husband was on his way to drive off the cliffs in Pedro (we never found him after looking for an hour, he texted her back and told her he was over everything) to a call where the man called 911 looking for the number to the station for a crime that occurred last week (yes he was high)..and we finished it up with the guy who drove up on the sidewalk to run the girl over because she spat on his car...so when you call us and it takes us a while to get there, you know where we are and what we've dealt with all day..so it doesn't mean we don't want to be there...we've probably had a long bloody day already..
