I was told once that emts liked to cut the shirt off pretty girls so i remember trying to cover myself during my rescue. But I'm sure I wasn't looking too pretty at the time.

I want to holler out a big thank you to you guys for all you do.

Good to hear you've recovered so well and seem to be thriving! We appreciate the gratitude, and it's inspiring to hear of such an incredible recovery after a devastating injury.

I'm certain some less than savory EMS "professionals" may have exposed attractive women that didn't need it, but it's not as widespread as it sounds like you heard. I've never seen anyone have their clothes cut away unnecessarily, and anyone doing that inappropriately would be swiftly punished anywhere I've worked.

It's pretty much a sign that it's a good time to cash out when the new dealer is complimenting you on your ability to count cards before even dealing a hand... because you hit an insurance bet for you and your neighbor.
 
I have been a :censored::censored::censored::censored: magnet lately. I had another code today. The wife called it after ~30 seconds of CPR. I broke most of his ribs and his sternum (s/p sternotomy) on the first few compressions. Definitely the loudest "Pop" I have ever head. The wife looked horrified. The patient should have been a DNR from the beginning. I wish we could show patients and their families a video of real CPR when they are discussing code status. People do not understand how violent it really is.

On a side note I am one of only a handful of RNs picked to get certified to pull cardiac sheaths. Add that to my resume.
 
All of my 911 calls in the last 2 nights have been psychs. And tonight is starting the same.

This needs to end.
 
Working the AmBus today for our Fiesta Parade. Pending any nutjobs, this should be a fairly fun shift :D Food, fiesta, and females abound :P

While there probably are pigs out there that do, if you're in a major car accident than it's proper to cut clothing off looking for any injuries that might be missed by looking at clothing alone.

Oh, there's pigs in every profession..

College professors, lawyers, software developers, politicians... Every career has jerks, but thankfully, I think they're the minority..

Interesting. Doctors are least likely to be psychopathic, but surgeons are most likely. That residency must ruin then huh? I suppose that may correlate with my personal experiences though. There's nothing quite like interacting with certain trauma surgeons that aren't happy to be awake for your trauma activation at 3 AM.
 
I learned something fun today.

Out of the 8600ish homicides commuted with firearms last year only about 430 were with rifles, even less with assault rifles. That's less than 4%...

There were more homicides committed with blunt objects than rifles too....

I love living in a pro-second amendment state. I'm gonna go sling some lead down range on Monday :D

I thought my true identity was kind of an open secret.

Well I must have been out of the loop then. But I did like your "technician comment".
