You're lucky and probably in a cushy white collar gig.
My uncle worked for a place where a vendor CE had a heart attack and died in the early morning in a raised floor space control room. Someone called 911 multiple times and due to bureaucratic fuckery security didn't let the EMS in multiple times. In short, the dead guy was wheeled back and forth by operators for 12 hours, when the plant manager dropped in and lost his shit and took care of it.
Like I said somewhere else, this topic is a corner of the world that sounds insane if you're not in it.
Where I work, 911 has no idea where we are for reasons, and a serious incident where a person isn't vocal requires a floor sweep. The emergency services don't have the time or interest to handle your company's internal stuff, particularly if you have a high call volume.
Pretty sure an electronics tech for a small machine shop (20 employees or so) does not count as white collar. Some days I envy coal workers. At least their stuff is dry unlike the atrociously bad coolant and grease I am often in.
