So apparently for April Fools day someone (I'm thinking a co-worker) posted my beat partner and my personal phone numbers on craigslist with a promise of a free TV in the ghetto. I've flagged the post but my phone is ringing / texting "off the wall" (Phones don't hang on the wall anymore). I can't think of anything to do about it.

Your phone is "blowing up". Yes, I died a little on the inside after typing that. I would get a privacy app that lets you flag only specific numbers to ring through, all others are rejected. I use an app called SemiSilent for this purpose. Then your family/friends can still reach you but all other numbers will be rejected. Also change your voicemail if you have your name on there.

Spoke with a co-worker who posted it as a joke. He's a young troop and didn't think it through. He's also unmarried with no kids so did not think about waking my kids up at 6am before they have that stupid state test today. I let him know that a lesser person, or me when I was younger, would have been much less forgiving about the whole thing. I also told him I'll inform him when the time comes to pay me back (Probably an unattended death call).

I've heard of that being done here before and it's a good way to get yourself "forced" from the squad. Yeah it might seem funny but no one deserve to get hosed with out of work. Giving out someones personal information is crap and most anyone with experience knows it's a terrible idea to do something like that. Pranks here usually involve people doing stuff to your cruiser, locker, mailbox, mdt if you leave it open and up, etc. Stuff that can be paid back and won't generally affect your wife, kids, sleeping cycle.

That's pretty messed up. What ever happened to the time honored pranks of zip ties on the drive shaft, paper confetti in the air vents, or pee through the locker vents?

Yes. You can also call out and text out from your regular phone and have it show up as your google number. You can set personalized voicemail greetings, block calls, send directly to voicemail and a bunch of other poo poo.

I see a $0.00 balance on my account, is that just for international calls? There's another company that advertises on podcasts all the time "E-Voice" which charges for all these same services.

Apparently a generator caught fire at the station and the power is completely out. A buddy of mine is being held over to provide gate security. Makes me real sad I took tonight off.

It's free cause it's google and they're likely looking at the data for analytics/ads. And yes, the balance is for calling/texting to int'l numbers. It's a great service if you put a bit of time into it and set it up within the US. Also if you travel a lot (or live outside the US like me) you can port your number to google voice and have it call forward to any mobile number you want.

beanieson posted:Just yesterday dispatch gave out my personal cell number to one of the registered sex offenders that I sometimes do status checks on We have one dispatcher who is a complete idiot. This guy assigns calls from the wrong beat consistently, gives calls out a South or West street as East or North, will take 10 minutes to run warrants, runs the wrong tag all the damned time. Well one day we had an officer who needed a ride to work, we have take homes and if your car is in for maintenance you can call dispatch and get a ride from one of the guys on the shift before you. The dispatcher gets on the radio and assigns it to a rookie officer. This rookie officer also has somewhat of a speech impediment so read it as "Tirty Sevwen" CC: "Comm center to 37" 37: "37 go ahead" CC: "44 needs a 10-86 from his residence" 37: "Clear, can you give me the address please?"  CC: "The address is ... *cue everyone on the loving department keying up and walking over his traffic* Luckily he was extremely covered and all you heard was intense static for about 15 seconds. This same dispatcher/officer did the same thing a while back for the domestic violence shelter which is supposed to be "secret". Now everyone in scanner land knows the address to the domestic violence shelter. Whale Cancer fucked around with this message at 00:00 on Apr 4, 2014 |
