Seeing this grow has been exhausting but necessary work. I am tired of the silence surrounding our profession and this response proves others are feeling the weight of it too.

Without them nobody knows where to go. They are the first link in the chain. Fix this now.

They witness everything through the headset. The stress is unbelievable. Do the right thing.

They deal with so much trauma on the phones all day. It is about time they get the same benefits as the cops and fire guys.

My wife works the overnight shift and it is brutal. These people keep us safe and deserve to retire with dignity.
