I was working as a medic at the parklife music festival this weekend. Virtually the whole of GMP was there and a load from the NCA they were expecting trouble and it did arrive alongside the usual drugs etc. Every dealing I had with them was pleasant and I always saw them acting professionally even with those I'm sure they wanted to give a shoeing to.

Here's a new and nasty cold calling technique I've just had a call about. Lady has a message on her phone from the Highways Agency saying that they wanted to speak to her about an accident. Rung them back and got a very professional recorded message about them being too busy to take calls at the moment but would ring back later. She is now worried stiff that a friend or family member has been involved in an accident. When they call back three hours later she is by now distraught but realises that the caller is telling her that she has been cited as the third party in a collision. When she pointed out that she can't drive because of medical grounds they cut her off. The number they called from was 01707 608 679. No reply when I called it so advise your better halves and family members about this nasty team of ambulance chasers.
For the record only the police investigate accidents and we always come to your house to deliver bad news.'Cigars are a hobby, cigarettes an addiction'

It's just like the "I'm calling about your unclaimed PPI overpayment from you loans" line. I always answer " what loans, I've never had a loan because I'm cash rich and have no need of them" they stutter and fart about trying to keep to the script and I hang up. I'm actually as poor as a church mouse.

Not everything on Facebook is crap, I just found the best job description for my job that I've ever read
Who Am I?
I am the voice that calms the mother into breathing life back into her asthmatic infant son.
I am the invisible hand that holds and comforts the elderly man who woke up this morning to find his wife of fifty years has passed away during the night.
I am the friend who talks the disgruntled teenager out of ending her own life.
I sent you help when you had your first car crash.
I am the one who tries to obtain information from callers to ensure that the scene is safe for those I dispatch to emergencies - all the while anticipating the worst and hoping for the best.
I am the psychologist who readily adapts my language and tone of voice to serve the needs of those I talk to.
I have heard screams of faceless people I will never meet - and never forget.
I have cried at the atrocities of mankind and rejoiced at the miracles of life.
I was there, though unseen by my colleagues in the field during the most trying of emergencies.
I have often tried to visualise the scene to coincide with the voices I have heard.
I usually am not privy to the outcome of a call, and so I wonder?
I am the one who works weekdays, weekends, days and nights and public holidays.
Children do not say they want to do my job when they grow up.
Yet, I am at this vocation through my own choice.
Those I help don't often thank me.
Still, there is comfort in the challenge, integrity, and purpose of my employment.
I am thankful to be part of and to be able to provide such a meaningful service.
I am a Mother, Father, Husband, Wife, Sister, Brother, Son, or Daughter.
I am where you need me and I am still here even when you don't.
My office is never empty, and the work there is never done.
I am always on call.
The training is strenuous, demanding, and never ending.
No two days at work are ever the same.
Who Am I?
I am an Emergency Operator and I am proud of what I do.'Cigars are a hobby, cigarettes an addiction'
