the 100% directionless thread

I disagreed with what he wanted me to do in the scenario, was firm with my decision, but he pretty much was like "too bad, you're doing it this way instead". He didn't say it like that, but even though I wanted to do it one way, he had us do it another way that I felt was subotimal.

I wanted to stay on scene, I wanted calcium chloride and dextrose first, but he wanted me to prepare for transport and run the code (he said he could see where I am going with calcium chloride and dextrose, but said he'd go with epinephrine first). When I said I'd still do it my way, and he didn't allow me to do that, that made me mad.

My advice is to keep your head down and play by their rules. Yes you may be right but no matter what you are the student and he is the instructor, you will never win. It is frustrating having to hold back on what you believe is right but it really is the best option. You can manage patients anyway you want when your a medic but until then it's BS textbook cookbook medicine.
 
I stopped believing for a little while today....Journey is going to be pissed!
 
Anyone have a line on a (preferably complete) AR upper that isn't ridiculously priced? I'm working on a build, and what few I find in stock are either NFA SBR length and/or priced at least 3x what they were pre-newton. I'm all for the free market, but it doesn't make it any less of a PITA when on the buying side.

I am thinking about starting a blog for my first year as a RN. I've never blogged or journaled before so not sure how it will go. I need to think of a clever name too

"Mursing Moments," "Mursing My Patience," "Clarence Barton, RN", there are so many puns, etc. to try

Whatever the name, it'd be a very interesting read, I'm sure!

I've got a friend who bought 3 uppers and three lowers about a year ago. He has recently sold all six pieces, each for 3-4 times what he paid. Same guy also bought 500 PMags at ten bucks a piece, like the day after the shooting. He's selling them on Ebay now for 85 bucks each and they are selling like hotcakes.

I wish I was smart like him. I'd be rolling in money now too.

This guy goes to gun shows and just flips stuff all weekend. He will literally make 10 grand in a weekend.
 
While discussing spinal immobilization

Doc: You see, EMS is like the Catholic Church, lots of tradition, doesn't like change.
Me: So which agency are the Vatican 2 separatists?
Doc: (while laughing)........ Ehhh, probably the second largest ALS FD in the area.

This conversation may have taken place in a Catholic hospital, lol.
 
It always amazes me how people get so upset when you catch them doing the wrong thing and call them out on it. If they would just do the right thing from the start there would not be an issue.
