Steph had worked at the same ambulance company for several years. She liked the work, the different kinds of calls, the people and her co-workers were, overall, pretty great people. Though she was an Emergency Medical Technician-Basic, and normally worked a truck, she had been rotated into dispatch for a couple of months. It was actually a blessing since winter was here and working outside, especially having to lug people around in the cold and on ice was a bit much. She welcomed the chance to just go to work and stay in a nice warm dispatch office.
The way the company headquarters were set up with simple enough. The office area was on the second floor and fairly spacious with the company owner' office being in one corner and various other offices surrounding an open area in the middle. Almost directly across from the dispatch room was the accounting/billing department where Sue worked. Sue was a bit older than Steph, about 60 or so, but she was attractive and carried her age very well. She had a wonderful sense of humor and personality. She worked usually three days and two evenings a week which gave her the chance to get caught up with no interruptions. Now and then she'd saunter over to dispatch and just chat with whoever was in there that night, lately, Steph.
Dispatch wasn't a BIG room, but it was adequate for up to three dispatchers but it was rare to have more than one on any given night or evening. Days was different, lots of transfers, chair car calls and the like in addition to the emergency runs. There was a large window which looked into the office area. From time to time Steph and Sue would catch site of each other and wave. It became a running joke for them. It was nice having someone around since the crews were often satelliting hospitals or if in the 'barn', down stairs trying to catch some sleep or watching TV.
One evening Sue came over to dispatch and she and Steph started talking about all sorts of things. Of course, as luck would have it, sex came up. "I'm beginning to feel like either Dr. Joyce Brothers or Emmanuelle," Steph thought, but she was getting a kick out of the conversation and just how open and frank this 60 year old was being.
"I have a challenge for you," said Sue. "You said you have a remote control vibrator? Me too."
"Ok, that's nice," said Steph with just a tad of nervousness. "What are you suggesting?"
" We bring in our vibrators and trade remotes."
"Why would we do that?" asked the now very curious Steph.
