My gas tank is almost empty but I feel too lazy to it fill up. Let's see how far below the line I can go before my car stops.

The whole time I was suturing I was thinking how great it was that I was getting a jump start on my fellow classmates. I'm still not sure exactly what it entails to be an EMT or Paramedic in my area but I know it's what I want to do for a living. I supposed I join this community to better...

This may sound like a "duh" question to some of you guys, but I am wondering exactly what an EMT affiliation is. I will begin taking the EMT-Basic course this summer, and one of the requirements is having an affiliation with such places as the fire dept, or police dept. Would I be able to just...
