Why when I or somewhere else when a priority call goes out does no one shut the **** up?! They need to call, switch channels or figure it out theirselves. In a rare time when something happens they just don’t shut up! 56 is lost, 29 wants the principal, 67 is mad at another drive, 55 and 54 is having a conversation, 45 wants to know how to shut something off, and 27 is just bullshitting. I want to tell them to shut the F up but is not worth the write up. So how do I shut them up?!

First off that's hysterical because it seems the problem is everywhere. That happens in my district too. We even have multiple meetings and announcements on the subject but people still ignore policy. You should talk with your supervisor and see if he or she can make an announcement or have a refresher meeting.

Asked by Ryan over 6 years ago

Give her a chance to show ya'll how she operates. Also don't be jerks to her just because of what you hear. A bit of peer pressure goes a long way when it comes to handling behavior.

How much trouble do you think a driver would get in for screaming shut the “F” up to a high school student?

Asked by Watson about 7 years ago

Depends on the context and how many other ears were around to hear the cuss word. If i have all highschoolers, I've been known to relax the rules a bit and cut up with them because God knows they've heard worse already.
