the 100% directionless thread

@Handsome Rob because it was more convenient than what my job carries, old beat up and sometimes there are no hip holsters. I wanted something nice. There are cheaper ones out there, but they dont seem like theyd last long. I sent him the strap back today, I hope it gets fixed and resent right away, otherwise ill be even more annoyed. I waited 2 months the first time and hes back logged.

one good thing did happen today though! i was able to upgrade my phone, note 4 and im still figuring it out but i love it so far.
 
Nothing like holding the wall for about two hours.

Fair enough.

Like I said if I were you I'd be politely demanding it be fixed first thing since you already waited that long and the order was incorrect.
 
Maybe my place has been behind the times for a bit, but a 30cc power flush into an IO makes it flow much better. Gonna have to add a big syringe to our IO kits now.

im normally not so politely demanding so im kind of surprised and proud of myself. Ill email him the tracking number and hint at it. Aside from my steth this is definitely one of the largest work related purchases ive made.

I use a 10cc connected directly to the IO and "slam it" prior to connecting the flush and don't have to use a pressure bag to get flow rates similar to a peripheral IV. IMO a 30cc is not necessary and would add to much potential leverage to displace the catheter but I'm clumsy. FWIW I've never heard of using a 30CC flush

You're nicer than me. I wouldn't be hinting at anything.

I shouldn't be talking so much smack, I'm toying with buying a radio holder for my belt, our belt clips are a pain in my ***.

For our big, loud events I've been contemplating buying an ear piece/lapel mic setup. It's so loud at many of them unless you've got your radio way up its impossible to understand what they're saying on the air.
 
In other news, my partner and I almost had a very horrible end to our shift. Pick-up truck lost a wheel going northbound on the freeway while we were going southbound. Caused an accident in his lanes and his tire came over the center divider and missed our windshield by a little less than 3 feet. He sheared off his lugs so the tire and rim came off, still inflated, you could've popped this thing back on and kept driving. 33"x12.5" tire going 70mph northbound while we're doing 70mph southbound would not have ended well for us. Counting my blessings for being able to post tonight from my own bed.

Medic 310 out of service for a change of pants.
 
Southern California weather for the win, I was sweating putting up the Christmas lights today.
 
75 and sunny in Savannah. My wife said it's hard for her to get in the Christmas spirit while she's in shorts and looking at palm trees.

I told her to get used to it.
 
I dont know if the resolution will work but here is my poster that arrived this morning. Presenting it at Tufts Medical School next week.

I sadly have the same opinion.
