Funny, but not if it happens to you...
The scene: local courthouse bailiff and security channel, five minutes after quitting time on a Friday.
Sergeant: "Where are you, X, it's go-home time!"
X: "I'm stuck in the elevator."

"EMS, downgrading to a Zulu response. Just bring a napkin."
Not so much funny as rather dark... I monitor the local elementary school (located right behind me) walkie talkies, the usual stuff about watching kids on the playground. Then the principal comes on and tells the monitors to keep the kids back from the fence area... Reports of a body found over by the tree line. Seems someone had OD'ed. Cops were called, you heard the principal telling the teachers and staff he was talking to the detectives... I can see all the activity from my window, it's literally next door. That was a fun day.
Heard "Hail to the Chief" today at 10:09 CDT on 121.500.
MAN THINKS HE IS PREGNANT AND HAVING CONTRACTIONS
Mt Hermon Church Rd - Salisbury, Wicomico County, Maryland
EMS Units were dispatched to Mt Hermon Church Road for a man in his 30's that believes he is pregnant and having contractions.
Note: Before anyone asks me if this is a mistake, a member of Salisbury Fire Department confirmed what was dispatched, and that is what is posted.

Dispatcher sends a patrol car to a local grocery store, "Manager says a truck ran over the stop sign in the parking lot."
When the officer arrives at the store he calls dispatch and asks if they have a description of the vehicle.
Dispatcher: "It will be the one on top of the stop sign."

After a winter storm....
Car: "Can we have power and light come out and look at this damaged pole?"
Dispatch: "Do you have a pole number?"
Car: "Yea, it's <blah blah blah>.....yo-yo"
*Pause*
Dispatch: "Did you say yo-yo?"
Car: "Um, yea, I forgot what Y was..."
Other Car: "It's Young."
Car: "Ok, the pole number is <blah blah blah> Young."
Dispatch: "Uh huh, yea, I got it !"
I'll bet Car never forgets his Y phonetic again!

I wonder if he become known as officer Yo-Yo in the department?
Speaking of phonetics...
Fire page: "Town fire, 123 West Something Street for a smoke detector activation in wing C as in cat. That's, 123 West Something Street for the smoke detector activation in wing C as in cat going off right meow."
I knew something was going on because they usually say C as in Charlie.

After the usual pleasantries between the dispatcher and officer to ensure that they have each other's attention:
Dispatch: "Store worker called about a suspicious car parked behind the business near the dumpsters. She said the car is definitely occupied and has been there for a while."
A short time later the officer checks out at the location. After several minutes, he reports:
Officer: "It was just a couple of lovers. He showed me the condom as proof. I told them to move along."

Thought it was interesting listening to my local fire service a couple weeks ago. Turns out they were responding to the local police special services building for a possible gas leak. what really grabbed my attention was "Units responding, be advised, there is ammunition stored onsite"
Anyway, trucks arrive and determine it was something to do with the HVAC and nothing to do with a gas leak
Very interesting when the FD has to respond to the PD!
