Wobbles and I are enjoying ourselves at out local coffee house today when the pager goes off. One right after another and my cell starts ringing. I answer it and one of the team guys asks what was going on. DUH, I tell him I dont have a clue.
Call waiting signals a call coming in so I grab it and its another team member wondering what was going on. All the time the pager is going from one page to another with each team members phone number on it.
Another call waiting so I grab it and its our Captain who wants to know WT nasty is happening. Another DUH followed closely by another DUH. Why is everyone asking me call flippin (that was a substitute for the actual word) dispatch.
OK, thats it, I grab Wobbles and head for the patrol car until we get this sorted out. If it is a call Im on my way. If it isnt, no big deal.
I call dispatch and they didnt have a clue. So it turns out that out pager host company decided to do some testing with out telling anyone. They dont have a clue as to how many Adrenalin overloads they caused. I got a total of 9 pages for a total of 16 pages of text and phone numbers.:mooner:
We got enough pages that it could have been a 747 that hit the lake.
