Makes sense. As I said before I haven't had any bad calls yet so I am wondering how I will react when I get one. Should be interesting.

My parents are pushing for me to become an RN. I told them that I don't want to be an RN they just don't understand. They just keep saying well you will make good money. Well maybe I would if I did that but it wouldn't make me happy. I am happy with becoming a paramedic.

Question For anybody to answer Do you think someone can be too caring?

I hate that some people are only in EMS for the money. I mean im not saying money is bad but if thats all you care about something is wrong. One must have at least a little compassion for their patient

I don't know if he will or not. He is really cocky and set in his ways. He seems to care about no one except himself. Its really sad.

Thats good that you like helping people. There is a guy in my class that he is only going into this for the money.

Probably should go to bed in case someone calls in work tomorrow. Don't really feel like it. I think I will go get some vanilla icecream instead.

I love that show. I think I have seen almost every episode.

I just want to know what made you think of becoming an EMT. I think it is important to remember why you became apart of the EMS family. Sometimes it is the only thing to fall back on when situations seem unbareable and you just want to give up. I will start I guess. I was introduced to EMS by...

See what i'm talking about. When your feeling down you can just log on and read funny threads or if you need to just vent you can do that here to. People can actually be very helpful on here. If you have had a bad trauma call there are people here you can talk to and they understand what your...

Thanks glad to be here. Its nice to be able to have somewhere to go to get a laugh when life.

That would be interesting. Maybe I should try that. No then I would have to fix him if I hit him hard enough. Plus I don't feel like hearing his whinning. His religion was interesting though. The women in his family had no say. His mom had 7 kids. All kids are home schooled. The girls in the...

Wow. Ya'll are something else, you sure know how to make a person laugh. lol. And to think I almost married the guy. I was 18 and believed almost everything he said I was so naive. I know better now. So glad I decided not to runaway and marry him to think me as a little house wife, wearing...

Well I don't talk to him anymore. Ever since he got a job at an ambulance service he thinks he is better than everybody else. Honestly I don't think he cares about his patient, he is more worried about how he looks because he says things like " well I just saved this persons life" and all that...

Ya Im still young so I figure I have a lot of learning to do. At least I haven't ran any calls in flip flops. But hey we all make mistakes right? You just learn from them and move on.

True never thought of it like that. Which then again I haven't been into EMS very long. I haven't had really any bad trauma calls. Actually I have had one trauma call the rest medical.

Well I sorta went though this phase where I thought that wearing pants was wrong for a woman. (mostly I think it was because he made me feel bad for wearing pants. He had been in ems longer than me and he said other women wear skirts.) Lets just say I don't believe him. I mean I wore my EMT...

Well we dont have a dress code so we wear whatever. (they are changing that now) anyways I was dating this guy who thought it was a sin for a woman to wear pants so I wore skirts. ( Had to be a long skirt though). Lets just say I don't do that anymore.

Do ya ever have that feeling when you start your day, that it isn't going to be a good day. Well I have had that feeling and it was so correct. Well I run for a small local rescue squad and we don't get a lot of calls. Well my pager goes of about 1 in the afternoon so I just jump in my vehicle...

I learned today that EMS skills taught me how to be really resourceful. I mean how many times out in the field have you needed something but didn't have it and had to make do with what you had? Well today I was out shopping and I locked my keys in the car. Im thinking "great what am I going to...
