“A convenience store employee picked up, then hung up. “
This idiot needs a boot to the head.
Well, that store is gonna owe a lot of money to a number of people for that grand act of stupidity
The phrase for this in New Orleans is “naturally New Orleans”. A related popular T-shirt a decade ago said “Its not the heat, its the stupidity.
No one in the City gov jackal pack is so detested or so incompetent as the meter “maids”.
I’m thinking that one person had a grudge against the ill person and put the boot on in hopes to delay care long enough to kill them.
I don’t believe rules like this apply to emergency vehicles
les and they may nit want to talk but when the patient sues they will be forced to do that.They all should be fired for doing this now!

Next time the emergency might be in the convenience store. What then?
Some idiot convenience store employee with no brains or some weird concept of employee fealty to the company rulebook 'boots' an ambulance parked in front of the store with it's emergency lights on and the EMT's in the store working to revive a stricken customer, thus, making it impossible for the ambulance to transport the patient to a hospital in a timely manner.
Well, it was in New Orleans so maybe that helps explain this bit of insanity. I'm not an attorney but the stricken customer seems to have grounds for a lawsuit against the store and the stupid employee.A suit that I would expect he would win, handily.
“We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal...”
Hmmmm... Well back to the ol drawing board............... :-)
Attempted murder.
I can see a sick customer suing the hell out of this place. Johnny cashier is toast.
My nephew is a paramedic with NOEMS. No one is surprised by this...only in New Orleans...anal thinking to the max. What makes it worse is the fact that the ambulance fleet is falling apart...if the EMS people can`t fix them they rot in a maintenance yard with dozens of others. ONE mechanic on duty. Oh and the EMS people are STILL working out of a small trailer-7 YEARS post Katrina. There are few hospitals and calls to the Eastern part of the city can mean an hour wait or longer for travel to and from call. Long time EMS people are leaving(my nephew included) and are told _”We don`t need you” when they try to volunteer part time. Now all of this AND businesses who call are going to boot ambulances.!! ?? Morons! Lets just say the inside talk is that this business isn`t going to get fast service if they call again + EMS personnel are talking boycott.
Right across the street from the Orleans Parish Criminal courthouse-— ‘nuff said. That and the “face blocking” photo of a ultra-long nailed “do” black female and the picture is rounded out.
The boot man gives a “kick” to the employee and/or the owner, for being called to boot a “violator”, no doubt.
This takes some real simple mind. Would be of minor interest to know if the “patient” was a problem customer....etc.
Hoodat?
People that stupid make me long for the days when we used to institutionalize idiots like that. Now we give them iPhones, EBT cards, and pay taxes to the {expletives} that buy their votes.
The manager or owner and the employee who booted the ambulance should have been arrested. The boot should have been taken by the police and impounded. The city should bill the store for extra time wasted dealing with booted ambulance. They should also also bill the store for any repairs needed to the ambulance.
Material for your schtick ping!!
Who paid the $115?
