When you look at your paycheck and realize that agreeing to come off weekends for your wife was not in fact a good idea 🤬🤬🤬

I am officially a paramedic student 😎🤠🚑🚒

I need absolutely EVERYONE to opine on this idea please. On Facebook marketplace, I found a 1986 Chevy C30 ambulance for sale, and it needs a total rebuild to ever run again. Would it be worth the money it'd cost to rebuild it from the ground up as a car show display piece? The intent is to...

I'm so stoked right now! The only remaining thing standing between me and starting paramedic school this fall is my interview skills. Essentially, the interview for the program is deciding who to cut rather than who to accept; everybody who got an interview received a welcome packet with...

I'm trying to decide if I should ask local farmers and ranchers for permission to fish on their currently flooded fields

As soon as I get accepted I'm signing a three year pro-rated contract

Just to clarify the front windows are down, my extended cab windows don't open at all, and I stayed at the truck. The dogs were NOT left unattended in a closed truck

Just a great day to take the dogs for a trip to the gas station

We get our ambulances from a dealer in Arkansas, so it's a mere 10 or 12 (roughly) hour round trip

I can't afford that, in politically correct terms I'm "financially challenged"
