I don't have first hand experience but I knew someone who worked as a 911 operator in surrey and it was stressful/depressing for them. The stuff you hear on the news is maybe 1% of what actually happens. They couldn't tell specific details but lots of suicidal calls and domestic disputes.

They worked varied hours/shift work. They did have opportunity for overtime and made quite a bit. Also need to keep a clean record and keep things confidential.
