Hey been working a little over a week here. So when should I expect them to pay me? How much are they going to pay me? Can I take sick leave?

I was told I have to pass EMT-B class and pass some sort of test. Can you tell me where to find one of these classes, and what this test is. Also, is it possible to take this class in only a couple days? I really need to do this fast. It is all I have ever wanted to do!

Although fun and it is with sarcasm, we fail to understand what true education means. It is not always knowing what the answers are but to where to locate and whom to ask.

Why is it such questions are not asked upon the right person or within the area to ask? For example license and certification questions should be directly asked to the agency that is certifying them and not a public forum. As previous discussed numerous times, how sincere are you about your career? It would seem that if you were serious then you would obtain the information from a credible source.

The same in regards to schooling, loans, certification. Would one not ask their instructor... before graduating?

The old saying.." there is no stupid question".... is not really true. Especially if that question could had been answered previously.

Just make sure that you pick up a quality opthalmoscope. The Welch Allyn dude is totally suggesting that you go with the PanOptic!

How can I get those doctors at the ER to treat me with some respect? I am a trained professional (got super good marks in my EMT class) and the most important link in the chain of survival, yet those a-holes won't listen to me when I tell them the patient needs 15 lpm on a non-rebreather.

Is there a limit on how many patches I can put on a uniform? Is it acceptable to wear long sleeves year-round so I can display more patches?

Can I show my flaming skull and naked woman tattoos while at work? It's my form of self expression and I think they're cool.

Why, after my two weeks of training, can't I intubate, defibrilate, stick needles in people, and give them all sorts of cool drugs? Seriously, who needs all that A&P stuff anyway?
