    I love when males have foreign objects stuck in their tucus and when I ask how it got there they all say the same thing "Oh. I fell on it."

    Haven't had a small child die on me. Had regular folks though. Meh. Everyone dies.

    Not often. Sometimes though. That's why I always turn off the big flashy lights before I hit a residential.

    That way I don't look like a tard going in circles.

    Injuries, death...you get use to it. Small children bother everyone....you learn to put your feelings aside during the call. You don't look at them as people if it bothers you....that will mess with you while your trying to do your job. It's helped me a lot dealing with smaller kids since I had one of my own. It's easier dealing with kids when your around them a lot. You can't just ask a 3 y/o so...what's up? lol Talk about a strange look...it's like GTFO lol
