My dad, a commercial fisherman in Alaska, was on the radio to the marine dispatcher trying to get a rescue because his boat was sinking and there was water lapping his ankles. The dispatcher scolded him for cursing and from what he related later that only turned up the firehose. A helicopter did show up in time, so all was fine. Baffling to me that people who are meant to be dealing with human beings going through stressful moments, perhaps the most stressful of their lives, believe policing civility should be part of the package.
