Good and bad. I heard 50% fdny emt have less than 3 years on the job, meaning people a lot of people without experience. For you guys trying to get on its good, because they changed the class sizes for the academy from 60 to 80 to 120 to 180. So they will exhaust the list a lot quicker and...

To piggyback on what tech techlife said.. don't be an a hole! Ladies and gentlemen, YOU chose this job. The job didn't choose you. I've been on the streets now for about a month and you see a lot of a holes out here. A lot of people who hate the job and it makes your life miserable. When...
