So last night was my first ride-along. lol, I jumped up from bed so fast when my pager went off that some picture frames and such fell from the top of my TV stand.
When I got into the bus, I asked them what the call was and they said the usual. Meaning it was a call from Tyrol Basin, our local ski hill.
We got there to find a 28 y/o m with a 1" laceration on his chin and a concussion. He lost consciousness for about 2 minutes, but was doing fine by the time we arrived. My crew pushed him to take the ride to the ER, but he said he didn't have insurance and reassured us his buddies would take him (yeah, right!)
So after signing some forms, we were on our way. The most boring first call I could imagine. Didn't even get to transport.
My crew says they either get "white clouds" or "grey clouds" for the newbies, depending on if all your calls are alpha vs. delta or worse. I guess this makes me a white cloud.
Had to share.
