    11/13/24 Manhattan All Hands Box 1684

    Sorry, i wasnt criticizing the rundown, i mean i literally know of a couple engines significantly closer that were definitely AQ and not assigned. Barb bullshit still going in a decade later.

    So much is done ass backwards in this city, this stuff is no different. Engines doing BI in their 5th due response areas, companies responding through other company’s first due areas to get to boxes that the other company isnt even assigned to, etc.

    9/25/24 Bronx All Hands Box 4771

    Terrible block to have a job on. Long street only accessed up at tremont and sedgwick or the wrong way from the south. almost impossible to get rigs beyond 1st due set up properly.

    8/5/24 Manhattan 10-75 Box 1726

    Yet another screwed up box assignment crossing a borough.

    8/2/24 Manhattan All Hands Box 1673

    Another one of those boxes across a bridge that makes no sense when you look at who responds to the crossing itself.

    7/31/24 Queens 2nd Alarm 10-77 Box 1319

    There are a few instances of that in bronx/manhattan too. A bridge box gets whatever companies….but buildings on the other side of that bridge get companies who are 3rd or 4th due to that bridge, before the companies that are 1st due. Makes zero sense.

    Pump Operations

    When in doubt its pumps prime preset, taught to the younger guys and non ecc’s. We’ve also had some weird issues with the pump airlocking and being unable to even drop the booster. Its taken some creativity to fix by some heads up eccs in numerous places.

    Good thing we use more companies now, hopefully it helps stave off closures when the economy shits the bed.

    6/5/24 Bronx 10-77 Box 4758

    Dispatchers cant fully anticipate how quickly it will go under control, or how long units may operated even after the under control.
