Broken stretcher is when an emergency room nurse or doctor pisses off a paramedic and a radio call for "broken stretcher" is made. Then every ambulance in radio distance picks up as many frequent patients as possible and overload the ER until an apology is made. The wrong has to be made right.
Paramedic1: damn partner that RN called a complaint on me.

Paramedic 2: looks like it's time for a broken stretcher on that ER.

Noun: a friend who is usually only called upon by a friend when a more primary/prominent friend is unavailable.

Taken from the term “second string” in an athletic competition situation. In football, if the star quarterback gets injured during a play, the second string is called off the bench to replace him/her. A “Second String Friend” is essentially benched until needed, if ever.

Synonyms: Plan B, Second Choice, Secondary Friend, Benched Until Needed
