On call, my butt!

Wow, with as many calls as we had today you would thought I would have made it on one of them. No such luck. The first call came out at about five-fifty pm. I was not at the station so I did not go on that. I did get to the station at about six o’clock for our meeting, but by then people were already gone. So I waited around and another call came out. Some of the reserves were split up with the full time staff for the next calls. I was told to wait with Engine-thirty-three for a call. While waiting Nick came back in Rescue and sent me and Reed to get Brian from the hospital. While we were doing that another call comes out for the others to go on.

Following all those calls it was quiet. We had our meeting. I was hanging out at the station for a while and talking to one of the new WSU guys who came to be a reserve. Then Nick took the new reserve and another reserve who had been gone all summer on a drive around the city in Rescue. As they left, I said “Enjoy my calls.” Nick laughed because he knows thing are quiet when I am around. So while they were gone there were two calls. I did not get to go on either of them.

Following their drive around the city, when Rescue would be available for me to respond on, there were no more calls.
