Scammers Threaten Apex Police Captain With Arrest


There's literally zero logic in anything that he's saying. Would expect nothing less from a scammer who calls a police captain and threatens them with an arrest.

Medical Transportation Employee Maliciously Complies For Good


The worst thing to see is a rule that only serves to end up hurting someone else. This poor elderly lady just needed the extra help, but the inspector had to go and have zero chill, and complicate that process. Fortunately, the medical transportation driver was ready to disregard all that BS, and do what was necessary to help the elderly lady in need.

One of their many rules was that you could not provide any assistance to the patient INSIDE of their house. One elderly lady had an old house with a very small foyer that you had to climb three steps to get to the main floor. The only other entrance was around back and up two and a half flights of rickety step

Medicaid says take her up the outside stairs, dump her in the bedroom upstairs and let her worry about getting down to the living room level. We ignored their policy and took her in the front door anyway. A random inspection by a random inspector showed that we were not in compliance. We appealed, the inspector came out and saw the different options and

Text - Nope. From then on, when the driver arrived at her house, he would get her out of the van in the sidewalk, and then get on the radio and tell the boss to shove his stupid job. Now that he was no longer an employee, he was free to assist this lovely person into her front door and up the stairs. Once finished, they would come back to the van, tell the boss they'd reconsidered, and ask for their job back. Boss was ALWAYS understanding and took them back, but very carefully noted the 10 to 15

Cop Blocks Ambulance, Sergeant Gets Him Towed


It's not a good idea to block an emergency vehicle, and that goes for just about anyone. This new guy decided he'd take his sweet time getting his cruiser out of the way, so the powers that be decided he should learn a lesson in not blocking ambulances. For another parking dispute, here's a Karen who parked in construction site reserved parking, wouldn't move and got blocked in.

I see his stomping in my direction and then walks to the cruiser and the door was locked. He called for the cop that pulled in front and he either didnt respond, ignore, or

He rushed back and demanded i put the car down and that its not a funny joke but i reminded him that all tows are fair in the county if the c

Text - giraffepoliceforce I love this story because this guy in the early 1800's had so many great childhood memories of this tree and wanted to make sure it was protected no matter what. So he deeded the ownership of the tree to itself and everyone just went with it. Then in 1942 this intense windstorm came and knocked the tree over. And people were bummed. But someone had saved an acorn from the original tree, so they planted that and now Son of the Tree That Owns Itself is over 50 feet tall.
