Any Emtlife oldies, like me, still around?

Heck, I became a Paramedic at 27... and I've had my license for, what 12+ years now? I was a little over 24 when I got my first EMT job and I wasn't the youngest EMT there, just the newest.
 
I graduated from high school and became an EMT in 1988.

Old. Yep.
 
Youngest in EMT school, youngest for around a year at my agency, youngest in medic school, and I'm probably going to be the youngest medic at the company...
 
Hi Joy!

Good to hear from you again!

I was one when you graduated high school... almost... lol

You and I are pretty close in age... I figure younger than dead is not old. :cool:
 
I think I've opened up a 'can of worms', as to how young some of you actually are in the service these days...lol.
Sadly to, I think of friends of mine that have burnt out or ended up with PTSD after years in a job that is not very forgiving.
But just remember this...the seasoned EMS workers have put in a lot of man hours to make your jobs just a little bit easier, as the years have progressed within EMS and new technology becomes available... thanks to a lot of hard ground work from those that have come before you!
Btw..... I left school in 1979! lol :eek:
 
2008 here. I pop in from time to time.

Aw from the good old days and the late night chat parties.

Brown, Sasha, Tommerag or something like that lol and FFEMT threatening us all with his stick.

2006 or so for me couple years before I left Indiana to move west (in 2008).

The new EMTLife doesn't show how long you have been a member or how many posts you have done
 
I'm still here, I drop in occasionally but don't post much.....

Do you mind pointing me to your novels?

I will say that I remember and enjoyed your insight from when you used to post.

As for me I have continued plugging along, I am now a Licensed ems level 2 instructor and a training officer.
