An Emergency Call Centre worker in London has been dismissed from her job, much to the dismay of colleagues, who are reportedly unhappy with her treatment.
It seems a male caller dialled 911 from a mobile phone stating, “I am depressed and lying here on a railway track for the train so I can finally meet Allah.”
Apparently, “Remain calm and stay on the line,” was not considered to be an appropriate or correct response.

I am old enough to make my own decisions....Just not young enough to remember what I decided!....
