Flood Call 1476
The dispatcher is making a personal call. The person she reaches is exhausted from sandbagging all day. They spend time talking about their children and their reaction of the situation. The operator places the call on hold to answer two calls, one of which is a car accident. She then gets back on the original call and talks to her son about his birthday. She remarks that one dispatcher from the East side was not able to get to work, even though others from there did. [may be duplicate of already existing call]
