I have to start looking for a new job. My now ex-ambulance company fired me this morning.

The one you just got on with in CO?:unsure:
Yea HAd an incident with one of the rigs in a week where they've had 4 accidents. Was terminated as a lesson to the other crews (I'd been there the least amount of time)
EDIT: I do still have an interview with another company scheduled for early June, just called and left a message asking for confirmation of the time and date. I applied at the other one the same time I applied with the one I got hired, so hopefully I can just get a job with them.
My old company was one of the ones pushing for short response times for OLFA calls. So they are bad about it.Jeeze I'm sorry... I think it's so funny that these companies push their response time rules.... for example you must be at the call in 8 minutes or we will take money out of your pay check.... yet God forbid you get in any sort of accident, because then we'll fire you. Even if you're not at fault.
I'm not saying accidents shouldn't be taken seriously and investigated, but when you're telling people they must be safe or else, but on the other hand telling them to hurry up no matter what the circumstance or else.... you put people in a bad position.

I just put out about 6 apps... for ER tech, ICU tech, EMT, SAC air dispatcher, urgent care EMT... Plus I've got an interview with Pridemark in early June that I never cancelled when I got hired with ACA.
Hoping I get something
EDIT: And I hope I didn't apply as an ICU tech where you are I don't wanna go up against ya
Hahaha I bet you applied for the same ED tech job... days at a hospital named after a particular nationality? . I didn't think I would get it anyways, but you never know. I applied last night.
If you did apply for the same ICU job... nights at a SE-located hospital.... you might be SOL sorry. The nurse manager told me she was done interviewing people and going to make a decision by next week. You'll beat me out for the ED tech job for sure though.
It is indeed the hospital you applied at for ED Tech then You can have the ICU and I'll take the ED, how's that?
Ha. Push for the good deal there jt. I'd say ER over ICU any day.
That is just sad about your company. Did you total the dang rig out or what? Termination just like that is usually reserved for use in either a serious offense or by a serious alfa-hotel for a minor thing. I feel for ya......:sad:

Ha! Normally I would be ok with that arrangement but my best friend happens to work days in the same ED. And I love her.
Does that mean you were checking my friend out?!?! Hahahaha....
I took the lightbar off the top of one of their Type IIs by going under something that was a little too low. It happened to be taller than any other ambulance in the fleet, and I misjudged it. Lightbar is the only damage to it, but they've had 4 accidents in the last week or so. So they made an example out of me and fired me to show they were willing to fire people who screw up
how much is a dime? just counting my change from last years trip and never figured how much its worth?
ahh thanks for that. im heading over again next sunday for a few weeks im so pissed the exchange rate is so low. but im still getting more dollar for my euro so i cant really complain to much.
