I work 2 EMS jobs. 1 I'm only part time, this has great benefits for full time employees. Top notch insurance, retirement, uniform allowance etc. I use to be full time here but got sick of running 6-10 BS calls per shift. My other job is extremely laid back, super nice administrator, few calls. And very relaxing, but 0 benefits. I just got married and would love to provide insurance for my wife, but I'm debating if it's worth it to give up this cushy job which a love and go back to a super busy service, just for the benefits. We're both young with no major health problems. Too be honest, j don't think I like EMS anymore. The worst part is the stupid *** nursing home calls and 2 am calls, when I'm awoken from a dead sleep and dazed and confused will I still try to wake up. I like to think I'm a knowledgable, good paramedic and want benefits, but I just can't decide if I'll be happy there now, even tho I wasn't before. Idk why I lost so much interest in EMS. I use to study constantly, always taking courses to learn me etc. I just don't enjoy it anymore. Advice?
