    From what I saw Brian was that the car was a toyota size car. I still cant figure out how 9 ppl fitted in there. They had to cut the roof off just to get to them and a memorial was made at the site of the accident for the 4 kids that died.

    My first call

    That would be worse,I most likely wouldnt be able to stand the smell of rotting flesh or even burning flesh. I remember this one call that the service had before I came on board,it was for a body removal,and come to find out the body had been there for over a month so the crew had to have the...

    I dont blame you for wanting to vent on that lamont,I would do that as well,especially since it was bs reasons for the cop to cite you for rolling thru a stop sign,especially since there was no traffic,and you did have your blue light on. I would of fought the ticket.

    What made you want to be a Medical First Responder or EMT?

    I agree with you there chimpie,security officers should be trained in either mfr or at least basic first-aid and cpr so that way they can be doing something other than just standing there. One time I was filling out an application at the mall for a security job and I overheard a radio call-in...
