I guess I had a different experience than most people who have taken the CBT. My friend and I both went to take the EMT-B, both of us felt that it wasn't very hard, both of our tests stopped in the low 70s, and we both passed. We had heard a couple horror stories from two classmates who took...

Jedi, I'm inclined to agree with you about not accepting their new offer. You'll not only get paid less, but you won't even be an EMT anymore. :( Good luck with whatever happens!

Here's what Rid is talking about, Guardian: http://www.medicschoice.com/paramedic-program.html

I agree with oldschool medic. If they're not willing to work with you as a new hire, they're most definitely not going to work with you later on. Plus it sounds a little odd that you were apparently under the impression that you were working much closer to home, then they informed you that you...

Cute little guy! Is he from a pet store, or did you adopt him from a shelter?

Just because you don't like what Steve said, doesn't mean you have to get an attitude. I will say that if he gets stuck, he's either infected with something or not. You can't pour bleach on your finger or cut it off and stop it from spreading. If he thinks he's infected, he'll have to get...

I realized that I forgot to introduce myself! Jon had reminded me to post a greeting, and then I forgot. Sorry Jon! Anyway, I'll be starting EMT-B class this coming semester, and I really joined just to get some insight in to the job, and I figure it couldn't hurt to know some people with...
