Getting paid to sit around a pool and enjoy the view. I'm probably gonna be really busy soon.

Mix 700 people (most under the age of 30) plus free alcohol plus a huge party by 4 pools and multiple fire pits = a disaster waiting to happen. Ooh and I'm the only EMT at the event.

Wow, 700 in attendance and you're alone?

Over 400 and my boss won't take the contract unless they agree to a second EMT.

To be fair its a technology seminar aka geeks...

We have been doing this seminar for years with no major issues (broken arm one year). So the company figures that one EMT will be enough. We are also the 911 company that covers the area so if I need more units then I just have to make a call to dispatch and I will get some more aid ranging from BLS to ALS to the supervisor.

So... I'm officially addicted to 2 shows, that happened over the weekend. Watched Southland and the Following this weekend. Went out Friday bought all 4 seasons of Southland and watched all of them and recorded all episodes of the Following... I'm such a nerd. :rofl:

So I took you to the ER two days ago for your Bell's Palsy. ME personally! Two days ago...and you're going to call at oh dark thirty to go back to a DIFFERENT ER because your facial droop hasn't resolved?

Then the first ER you wanted to go to diverts us because "she needs a neuro consult" then we put her in the waiting room at the trauma center...

Really?

Thank you for losing me my hard post and making me sit in this j anky single cab thing they put me in for my OT shift...

Alright, I'm done ranting.

I finally know what diabetics feel like with low blood sugar, and its not fun. We have been running all shift, finally got a chance to eat, and caught another run. I started feeling shaky on the run, checked blood sugar, and it was 45. Was not expecting that. I now have a lot more compassion for our diabetics.

That pretty much shot my travel plans to move my wife up from El Paso...the roads west of here are blocked and icy, the roads south of here are just icy, and I postponed the trip until next Monday. Another week apart...grr. Running low on bachelor chow!

I'm kinda bummed...OT night shift and no crazies...

Couple real sickly looking syncopals though. That for sure the second one was gonna be a STEMI from the 4-lead but the 12-lead said other wise.

"I don't feel good"
"Well sir, your blood pressure of 72/26 is probably why...let's go to the hospital"
"No!"
"Alright, if you can get up and walk around without us helping you you don't have to go."
"Alright, that's easy, watch!"
"Will you stand next to him and be ready to catch him when he...oops there he goes, nice catch! Alright lets get him on the gurney before he wakes up and starts trying to be smarter than me again please."

I do miss the atmosphere at night, thinkin' swing shift for the next bid.

Rofl. I didn't realise it was a full moon until we had 3 of our units picking up different baker acts form the same place at the exact same time. We even had security escort us out with the patients because we all left at once. The Charge nurse at the hospital looked at us with that "Seriously?" face.

Am off to bed for a nap... worked damn 50 hours out of the last 2 and a half days. x.x

P.S.

I just found the 500 club on here... considering there's probably plenty of people with 500 post why not make the mile high club? Requires 5280 posts to join?
