Then hangs up as caller tries to keep friend alive.

quote:

"One more breath! One more breath!" she is heard telling the teen. "There you go Jaydon. One more breath! There you go Jaydon. Good job! Just stay with me, OK? OK?" The dispatcher then asks again, "Is he breathing?" The female responded, "He is barely breathing, how many times do I have to (expletive) tell you?" "OK, you know what ma'am? You can deal with it yourself. I am not going to deal with this, OK?" the dispatcher says. It seemed from the tape that Sanchez hung up on the caller in mid-sentence. "No, my friend is dying .," she said as the call ended.

If you can't handle angry and panicky people, maybe a 911 dispatcher isn't the right job for you.

I would probably do the same thing if some bitch was cursing at me.

I would obviously be a pretty terrible 911 operator.

Typically as soon as the call goes thru, the right people are dispatched to the location of the call. The 911 operator only serves as a mediator to comfort. I'm glad she hung up. People bitch about the police, run into an emergency room cursing everyone out demanding help even tho they have no insurance, and expect the world to be handed to them on their clock.

why not? Should she "not use profanity" during her daily life as well?


Not sure if you've been in a situation where you're attending to a good friend who is dying before your eyes, but I imgaine that's a pretty panicky situation. People freak out. Lose their cool. LOL at all of you thinking that the caller was in ANY way in the wrong simply for cussing.

Could she have been more polite? Well yeah, sure. But I would never say she "shouldn't" have cussed. 100% of the blame here is on the dipshit who took the operator job knowing he'd get calls like this and then couldn't handle them.

Maybe because it's an emergency?

Did anyone besides me read this in a homo voice? Guarantee you the dispatcher is gay.

Thank God the 911 operator didn't hang up on Todd Beamer and others on those flights on 9/11 (not that it helped the end result but he could pass a message on to his family and he wasn't alone at the time of the actual crash). If you don't like your job quit ... do you know that you wouldn't be cursing in a situation where you're trying to administer aid to your friend? Yes the operator had a job to do and either do it the way it should be done or quit and find another job.
