I know this a personal preference question just as much as it is anything else, but I was hoping to get a little insight into my dilemma. I'm currently a Basic living in a pretty large area (150,000+) and in class for my AEMT right now and from the very beginning, it was EMS the whole way. However, a friend called me recently and said there was an opening at a much smaller city (40,000ish) for a FD/EMS that he told me was desperate for EMT's and medics. I've never had any interest in fire but my question is being only 20 years old, would going against my reason for getting into EMS be worth getting a better paying, better benefits city job? I know nobody gets into this for the pay but where's the line for the love of the job and better pay, benefits? Any insight into this?
