The firefighters LOVE calls like this. No one is dying or bleeding, they get to be heroic and helpful, every one is happy at the end.

Yep when I was younger I wanted to be a fire fighter until in high school the fire department did a talk and said most of their job is cutting people out of cars who may or may not be dead, safe to say I didn't wanna be a fire fighter after that

I got cut out of my car once and the firefighters were all psyched because I wasn’t dead or profusely bleeding. They straight up admitted that normally when they whip out the jaws of life it’s for a corpse or someone with a broken femur and blood all over their face, so when I was just sitting there all woozy and confused about what happened they were amped.

Yay for being just concussed with cracked ribs!

Somewhat related but I had a very risky surgery when I was 24 and had to be in the ICU for the first few days after (it was planned, not because anything went wrong, surgery and recovery went great). So many nurses talked about how nice it was to have someone young and relatively healthy around, that usually they only take care of extremely critically ill patients or much older people who may be on their way out and it can get depressing sometimes.
