Ok back after long Hiatus. I haven't been on here in forever but this thread caught my eye again. I personally know of a ginger girl (Her name is Ginger actually) and she's one of the most competent medics I know. Totally laffin at the red head joke though....does strawberry blong with red...

OK so I just finished with my local protocol exam here in las vegas today. Got an offer from a local private service (MedicWest). They hired me for Special events to start with, Shows, sporting events, TV filming etc...should be a HOOT!!!!! Had to wait 3 months after I finished Intermediate...

Thanks I feel better after reading this so thanks guys! It's nothing that is very severe and my driving/riding has not been affected so hopefully it will pass in time. Thanks again!

OK....I wanted to post this thought and see if there are others who have had similar experiences or if i'm just A bonafide psych patient myself and need to check into the nearest facility:rolleyes:. I am a new EMT....(Finished school in November) I've found that after my orientation and riding...

Signature Thanks Reap! I thought long and hard about what I should put. If we can't laugh at ourselves what good are we? :P

So true "I can't afford to give 2 cents. I'm an EMT after all. But I will loan out my 2 cents." I can't even afford to loan my 2 cents. Student loans after all. B)

Bwhaha So im reading the posts and thinking to myself...this is like a really good sitcom (ina sad kinda way) then I see the popcorn smiley and BUST out laffin. I swear I laughed for a full minute. HACKIN FUNNY! :lol: Anyway, having recently taken my NREMT-B and then followed up with...

It's dead already and sent to glue factory

I call testosterone poisoning. Leave it to the EMS guys to turn a post about proper hair grooming into a contest about who's the hottest bald chick. Let the stereotypes fly! :ph34r:

Medic to RN I am actually planning on doing a Paramedic to RN program. I chose to get into EMS partly because I needed a way to earn a paycheck and continue my education. Having said that I don't think I will leave EMS anytime soon. EMS could certainly give an aspiring trauma nurse a lot of...

Never said that I said no immediately. I had to think about how or if I should approach the instructor. My Quote "Later that day a fellow student approached me and asked if I wanted a copy of the test to study by. I asked him how he got ahold of the test and he indicated that another...

Karma Well, I think I did allow "karma" as you said to meet out the consequences of this student's actions. I didn't name names when I brought it to the attention of the instructors assistant and I DID refuse the test. This resulted in the student not being able to continue on in the...

Final answer? The tests are now numbered and there is more supervision as I brought it to the attention of my instructor's administrative assistant. The person who made the copies of the test (I later found out) had been previously arrested for having 15 pounds of (mari ja wanna) in his trunk...

oops ROFLOL yeah. I see what you mean.........I writed that not too good....but im not a soopid but...uh....my teacher says i'm special....I even have a special spot at the back of the bus. Ok maybe i am a little mentally challenged...I pitty the poor shmo who has to decipher my PCR...

Clarification "Wait, they got a copy of the test AFTER it was given? I don't see how that helps boost their grades?" they copied the test for the purposes of studying for the midterm or final. The student's felt that some of the questions would be repeated on those exams.

I struggled with this situation for about a week. What would you do? Ok this happened a while ago when I was in my basic course. I walked by a group of students while on a lunch break and saw a group of them standing around a copy of the quiz that we had taken that morning. This was unusual...

Wow....Just Wow I have nothing nice to say so I'm going to say it at all.

Do something....anything.....but not this.

Interesting OK well I just finished my Intermediate class and was surprised to see who was "weeded out" as you put it. In the course I took, each student was required to have a 75% at mid term and an 80% (overall) at the final. If a student's grade was not at that level then they were not...

Sad story Wow. Sad story here. I lived in atlanta for several years. It's big. I could see how this could happen accidentially based on Grady_EMT's description (thanks for that btw). Sounds like the situation has been addressed and corrected but like others said is it really possible to know if...
