I'll just leave this here. We are a combined Paid/Volunteer Fire/EMS system, providing ALS Rescues, Engines and Ladders, as well as a few BLS apparatus, with private BLS providers as well. We have aggressive protocols and excellent medical direction to the 1000+ members of the Dept, serving...

IAFF? I'm EMPACCT, but the FireMedics are IAFF. We pretty much ride their coattails with contracts, but they are well written and provide us well. I think our uniform allowance is 400-500, but MUST be spent at the only authorized uniform store, and only on certain allowable items.

What if you can't get a line?:rolleyes:

The pay for Medics in the Northeast (at least NY and NJ) for medics is pretty good. I was making 22+ as a new medic with almost unlimited OT in Jersey plus differentials, and I make 25+/hr as a per diem.

I live and work in Fla on a FD. I can be choosy. :PB)

EMS girls are usually hott. They love firemen. Poking people with needles and pushing meds is cool. I get to drive really big Rescues. I get flashy lights. I get cool t shirts. Yes, this is facetious. Well, the last part at least......

However that person got to the hospital, should be the way they get home. If the service is DCed, they should have made arraingements earlier. Disabled means I make reasonable accomadations for you, not bend over backwards because you are lazy/ignorant. Then again, I don't do...
