Got home late to find that the hubby spent the evening looking for the perfect Jeep Wrangler. I think he found it too, all spec'ed out with off roading stuff, and he left open the window that shows we're approved for the loan.

LOL.

What a Father's Day present this is gonna be.

A Heep? Tell him to check out some Toyotas instead lol.

So, I take off for a month and a half and MedicRob disappears? What have I missed?

 

[katgrl2003]

Still sick. Ugh, I hate being stuck in bed!

 

[rmabrey]

Signed my acceptance letter for $2 an hour more than I expected B)

Looks like I have an interview tomorrow at Starbucks. Maybe I can actually do Expo, pay for classes, and take the Tactical EMS course in September...

Flying to the East Coast today for my Practicals, Oral Boards and Physical...

Hopefully I'll be flying back to Washington with an offer letter in my pocket.

Leaving your EMS agency? Or a part-time gig?

 

[TransportJockey]

Part time. I still work my singular 36/week at Cross, but extra money would be nice.

Sweet that's not a bad gig. I actually spoke to a couple of baristas here in Houston who said that the fact that they were EMT's clinched the job for them so make sure and play that up in the interview.

The pay is almost what I'm making as an EMT-I, so that will help me out a lot... although my heart might just explode from massive doses of caffeine. Since I'll be going in uniform for my interview (already have permission since it's neither of our fault that the original interview was cancelled) I don't think I need to play up the EMT part

 

[NomadicMedic]

I couldn't work at Starbucks. I'd drink the profits.

 

[TransportJockey]

Free drinks while you're on the clock my friend.

 

[bigbaldguy]

Most of the Starbucks around here give you a employee discount if you're in 911 uniform when you come in

 

[TransportJockey]

The ones here do for the most part too. As do our smaller local chain shops (Satellite Coffee and Flying Star Cafes) and other small coffee shops.

I can save your life and make you a coffee of your choice at the same time?

Some (very few) of the big chain stores give us discounts. But pretty much all of the little mom and pop stores, restaurants, etc will do no charge.

 

[NomadicMedic]

I'm afraid being around coffee all day might ruin it for me. The same way bakers begin to detest the smell or sight of baked goods.

I love coffee. It would be tragic.

Why do the ice cream van drivers look so creepy? Or is it only in my area?
