"We convince ourselves that we are superior medics because we can work a resuscitation in our sleep, or we can fall down a flight of stairs and accidentally intubate five people on the way down."

Me: you OD'd on heroin again.
POJ: No I didn't. You are lying!
Cop: bull :censored::censored::censored::censored:. You were f***ing blue and almost dead when we got here.
Me: oh btw, if you weren't shooting heroin, then what was in that needle still in your arm?
POJ: YOU F&$€¥NG A HOLES !!!! YOU PLANTED A NEEDLE IN ME AGAIN. IM GONNA SUE YOUR CRACKA ASSES!!(she was whiter than me, and I sunburn by looking at a picture of the sun)
POJ: (elbows your friendly neighborhood EMT in the face as I help her to her feet)
Cop: ( in that obnoxious gameshow announcer voice) congratulations!!! You just won 6-24 months in A facility to be determined by the MA DOC!!!!!
Me: thanks for the rest of the day off, and a weeks worth of OT pay when your court case comes up

I saw this on FB earlier today and thought it was pretty damn funny. Not sure why people have an issue with this. :rolleyes:

It's not the type of persona I would personally like to portray.

I don't think anyone wants to portray that persona. It's poking fun at the people that think they are God's gift to EMS. At least that's how I interpreted it. A laugh at our expense is good every now and then.
 
Quoted out of context

The quote was part of a well-written piece by Kelly Grayson which can be found HERE
 
I bet you all feel real cool now, huh?

If you don't have anything nice to say don't say anything at all.
 
I do not feel any different. I responded to what I read. Later on finding it is a piece quoted out of context does not change that statement or its lameness when presented alone.

As for not saying anything at all--this is a discussion board; conversation will ensue, some good and some bad. Some no one wants to hear and some everyone wants to hear, that is the beauty of communication.

The quote to say nothing at all unless it is good is by far one of the most ignorant statements in our language and it needs to die.
