No luck finding a EMT-B job :(

Surprised no one has mentioned dispatch... it's not hands-on patient care but it will at least get your foot in the door with an agency and is somewhat relevant. It usually pays significantly more than EMT jobs too...

That's exactly right! I worked dispatch at a Police Dept while I was still going thru EMT class. It helped a whole lot, learning the way dispatch operates, the codes they use (in some places they still use a few of the 10 codes), and now there are times that when I'm not on the truck and dispatch is hopping like mad, I am able to help out/take and dispatch calls/etc. It gives you a greater appreciation for the dispatchers, too. They have a real tough job.

Wow you've been looking for an EMT job for an entire WEEK? Abandon all hope, if it doesnt happen in an entire week it just wasnt meant to be.

LMAO!! It took me 4 years to get hired by a rural metro affiliate company. you give up after a week or even a month your heart isnt in it and its not the job for you...
