Yoe Ambulance Services, Inc. good ole Yoe, PA. (and yes, it IS as small as it sounds. lol)

welcome aboard bro!!! you have made it to the Dark Side!! but dont worry...we have cookies over here! lol

ive been hearing more and more about this stuff too. BAD STUFF!!! i havent as yet had to deal with it though, thank God. we dont have TOO big of a problem with crystal meth here in south central PA....yet. the drugs of choice around here are still crack and H. that is still scary stuff...

MS, you are correct to an extent. they are starting to formulate some brands of mace with pepper spray. but, 98% of the products when you say "mace" are composed primarily of chemicals....like CN or CS. OC pepper spray is all natural. and depending on the propellant, you can actually use it for...

hmmmmm..... i just saw this one on the EMS humor practical jokes forum and it sounds like this one might be appropriate here. the ICY/HOT on the toilet seats. sounds like a "fair is fair" situation here. lol and btw folks.....you think CS is bad.....dont ever try to take a shot of OC...

although a new life beginning is a beautiful thing.....i would rather not run in to that situation outside a controlled environment ever again. what a mess!!!

Rid, while i can definitely see your point in dealing with human life, theres still one thing about your post that caught my attention. you said about the med. students and going on their "grand rounds." i dont really see how you can compare med students to EMTs. or to paramedics for that...

BossyCow, i completely see your point. when the s*** hits the fan out in the field and you have a pt thats getting ready to check out and a partner that is on the brink of shut-down and starts doing things wrong and such, yeah...the heat of battle will make you say/do some pretty harsh stuff. i...

Rid, i respect your knowledge, and your experience. and i usually always look forward to reading your posts. but it's obvious that we have two TOTALLY different definitions of "brotherhood" and totally different perceptions of this post.

ok....im all for contructive criticism. and true, there are some people that are a little harsh when it comes to giving advice and suggestions to the posters here. but im sorry.....to say that the EMS field is not a brotherhood just makes me sad. it's not about a "good ole boy" mentality, or...

wow.....just WOW!!!!:angry:

im going with that one! lol
