    Starting a Blog

    I am thinking of starting a blog. Anyone have any tips on what site to use or how to start? It’s not going to be themed I don’t think, just wanting to experiment for now.

    I agree with this idea, I do the same from time to time. I'd even go to the page to just click a few adds to generate revenue.

    suicide with a gun, what woudl you do

    And thats the main reason why I wouldnt want to stage. To show the family that somone is there, to try and help, instead of having to wait almost 45 min for crew arrival. Pt was DOA, out of the 15 or so suicide attemps I've taken, he was actually the only one that was pronounced on scene, all...

    So after being in the communications center for the past five years, which was only supposed to be two, I think I may finally be able to get out on the road on a truck. I have been trying for the last few years, even looking at going to another agency but for various reasons it just never worked...

    I think this would be an awesome way to work, I am still new to this forum, and the one thing that I’ve seen that is common throughout the forum, is that this is more of a community than just a forum. And that’s evident by the fact that the MOD's are called "community leaders". And if the...

    Sandy road causing problems for ambulances

    I do want to edit my response, we actually border that county, they are SWof us, I mis-read what county that was. But besides the point, most if not every fire dept in florida has some type of 4x4 all terrain brush fire truck. That is what we use when the 4x4 ambulances are not available. So...

    Sandy road causing problems for ambulances

    My county is about two hours SW of that location. Florida sand sucks, its pure sugar sand in the remote locations. And just like NVRob said, its a personal problem, they chose to live there... But on the other hand, our agency knows the areas that are real bad and for any calls in those areas...

    From my experience, make it known that you have no problem canceling and going to another carrier and it will make them back track. Just remain professional and also remind them how long you have been a valuable customer and how you would hate to be forced to leave after such a long time over...

    Then again, they keep loosening the damn definition of "autistic" (which explains why those commercials that they air looking for research funding and how the numbers keep magically changing like "1 in every 150, no every 125, no every 100 kids is autistic") and it might get to the point where...

    Are You Serious?!?!

    I didnt know they issued socks either.:huh: And we have about roughly 30 als transports and roughly 35 als engines on at a single time, with a coverage area bigger than the state of Rhode Island, so its kinda required that we have a logistics building. But it has all uniforms, ems supplies...

    Are You Serious?!?!

    My thoughts exactly, and the worst part is they had to go clear across the city to get to logistics, thats a 20-30 min trip depending on traffic. It wouldnt be so bad, but we are so busy we cant keep trucks avail...

    Are You Serious?!?!

    HA HA , yea, no. It was the EMS officer for the shift that said they would be out of service to go get some sock from logistics...:rolleyes: and unemployment where I am is closer to 14% :sad:

    Are You Serious?!?!

    We just had a truck go out of service because one of the crew members came to work without socks!!! Thier reasoning is its supposed to be cold tonight (36F) and they didnt bring socks... this wacko knew it was going to be cold this weekend, and they still didnt bring socks! How can you come to...
