I worked at a retail store where on average someone would call 911 from the store once every couple months. You have to hit 9 to call out and then 1 for the area code. At that point you are one accidental double tap of 1 away from calling 911. Hanging up imediately doesn't do anything as the call still registers on 911's end and we receive a follow up call or a police visit to check things out.

I like to imagine Joe actually doing this all the time even when Jamie isn't even in the room.
