“Our sheriff’s department seemed to get a kick out of running over his. He’d take it off and lay it on the ground to use as a timer while working on someone and after they were stabilized and being loaded in the ambulance whichever deputy saw his watch there would make a point of running over it.”
Not enemy. He worked with them all the time. They were all buddies. Most of the ones that worked with him came to his retirement party. Cops and firefighters have a strange sense of humor.
I walked into the station one day and headed for the coffee pot. No clean cups so I grabbed one and took it to the sink to wash. Just as I turned on the water and it sprayed me straight in the face Hubby’s firefighter came running through the door screaming....DON’T TURN ON THE WATER! Then you should have seen his face because he had sprayed the Captain’s wife straight in the face. Lol. Of course I laughed. He had set it up for the engineer. They had a running gotcha going.
It was kind of the same with the deputies they worked with.
