is ambo actually a thing people say? that’s so funny
Yes, that is actually a thing people say here in Australia. We don't have "EMTs" here, they're called Ambulance Officers, and that sounds kinda wanky, so we just say Ambo. It's as widely-used here as Cop is for Police Officer.
By and large, you probably think it sounds funny bc it does in ur accent and I'd be laughing my arse off at you ☺️
Oooh, Black Betty, ambalamb
