While patrolling around today I got to thinking about some of the funny crap I've learned while wearing this uniform. Here's some of them.
- polyester is magic, it somehow does not allow a breeze to enter, unless of course it's 30 degrees outside and you're out directing traffic. I swear to God cold weather opens polyester's pores.
- I don't understand how citizens know the exact timing of your bowel movements. They call for service as soon as you get sat down.
- I have learned that we become masters at tucking our pants in from the zipper hole of our trousers.
- I have learned everyone has a cop joke. If it's not "STRIPPERS!!!!" when we walk in, it's someone saying "I didn't do it, he did," or "I'm gonna have that cop take you to jail (to their children)."
- Dispatchers are pretty much just there to test our patience, I'm pretty sure my unit's steering wheel has a permanent dent in it where I've hit it so many times.
- Shows like CSI make our job harder, "no ma'am, cannot lift a print out of thin air like they do."
- and...... Do lieutenant's actually do anything????
I'm sure there are plenty more in Fire and EMS.
Let's hear them.
