Personally, I prefer this to the beerbulance.

Around here, the pilot doesn't leave the bird, so it isn't an issue.

His point is that I have just started this job, and it looks bad to call in sick on my first shift out of orientation. He thinks I should have went in, and then hoped they sent me home.

Guess who has pneumonia? Yeah, not a good way to start the 3rd week of your new job. Let's just say my boss wasn't real happy when I called him earlier today to let him know I won't be in tomorrow. My husband didn't think I should have called in, but when the choices are to stay home, get...

So, what made them a good FTO?

Thanks for all the input so far! You all have mentioned things I didn't even thing about, i.e. PD being further away. I am really excited about this new job. I have always thought working rural EMS would be fun and challenging, but never really thought I would get the chance. I have been...

What can you tell me? I have been in EMS for 14 years, but all of it has been in an urban system, working for relatively well funded services. My new job is in a rural area. While I am excited about the new opportunity, I know there is going to be a learning curve. I already know I am not...
