TopicIdiots who call 911 over non-emergency scenarios

This always infuriated me, I had worked with a girl and her previous job was a 911 dispatcher for 2 years. She said about 75% of the calls are people asking for phone numbers and treating them like operators. There were other various morons that would call if a restaurant or store closed before the time on the door stated, and beyond moronic shit.

So I hear a commercial on the radio today that tells these fuckheads that 911 is ONLY for emergencies, and do not call if it is not an emergency. What baffled me is they proceeded to say "For non-emergencies, call 000-000-0000" the zeroes being numbers I don't want to type out.

Why not make a 3 digit non-emergency number that people can easily remember? If you are stupid enough to call 911 to ask for a phone number to a business, you are too stupid to remember a 10 digit non-emergency number to call instead.

Didn't 411 information used to be a thing? Why doesn't it anymore?
