There once was a dispatch named Zippy
who sent some fine medics on a trippy.
The sirens they blared,
as the parsley they shared,
and a bunny was saved! Yay and Yippeeeeee!
---------------
Ok, so you're going to save peoples instead of buns - you'll do great! Best wishes with all the training. Hurray For Tonya!
I'm a bit late but still: Congratulations and best wishes in your new job Tonya. It seems like very fitting work for somebody as caring as you are.
I couldn't have said it better, although I have to add conscientious, dedicated, and creative to that. Zip, you got what it takes. Trust your instincts.Quote:

We haven't heard from our Miz ZippyKat........maybe we should call 911 ourselves!!!

Hush now Sophie, don't munch too loud
Mama's gotta find a way to sleep like a cloud
No nudging, just snuggling and wishing her to sleep
So she can be cheerier and in parsley she will keep.

Here's a *Zippy-Up-Date* ~ (sorrie it's late :( ...)
Dad hadda take a Fiur Truk to the HS Foosball game last nite an we dint see her note till now. Big rainy storm durrin the game - he hadda go out an handle a kupla "tree down onna road" calls - gotz soakin wet choppin kindlin wood stedda watchin the game frum inside da Truk :p.
Zippy is trying to adjust to her new work schedule ~
In to work about 9 PM and off TEN hours later at 7 AM - means trying to keep alert when the rest of the world is sleeping... Then she gets to try to sleep during the day. Not phunn - even for a nite-owl! And WHEN do you try to EAT?? When's breakfast; lunch; dinner?? :confused:
She told us she did a "Ride Along" wiffa Coppers on - musta been Thursday nite... She rode wiffa Copper inna Patrol Kar while he wuz answerin Reel Police Calls :cool:! Hope she enjoyed the experience. They do that so the Dispatchers learn just what their Officers have to go through in the field - helps them to understand what info the field troops really need - and how Important the Dispatcher is... Good Call-Taker and Dispatcher help keep the troops safe! :)
We're hopin she gets to do a "Ride Along" wiffa Fiur Guyz an Galz, too! Onna nite when there's a reel Fiur = lottsa Citement! Wunder if they'll fit her out wiffa Fiur Coat, Boots, anna Helmut? We gotta get sumbuddie ta snap a pix wiff her standin in frunt of da Fiur Rig!! :)
Seriously, Folks ~
Zippy is under a lot of :eek: *stress* trying to ~
adjust to the new schedule;
learn all the technical details of answering emergency calls and dispatching for three different services (Fire, Police, and Emergency Medical);
and adjust to working with a large group of new people - who have to interact and with split-second precision and accuracy.
We Pet Talkers need to send her some encouraging words, offer some Prayers for Success, and maybe a few cyber {{{HUGGS}}} ;)
Hang in there, Tonya ~
It'll get better - we Promise!
Luv from All of Us!!
sorry to be so late in updating you guys.... thanks for all the kind words, warm thoughts, and best wishes! they mean soooo much to me!
sTrEsS?! you betcha... i've pretty much gotten use to the midnight shift but starting wednesday I go to the mornin' shift (6.30am - 4.30pm). I am NOT a morning person.... this could be interesting.... :rolleyes:
~will keep in touch~

Tonya, hang in there. I'm sure you'll get the hang of it. Too bad that they're having you change shifts already. Will you always be working a swing shift? That sure would be difficult. Good luck. :) We miss you hear at Pet Talk so try to check in when you can. Thanks for the update. :)
