Are those green pants!?
 
House fires suck.

Acadian is light-sage shirts, forest green pants. No more for me.
 
@DEmedic I am 100% certain that what I said in the Mentor thread has nothing to do with why I have a problem with some of my co-workers. In my system, the EMT can only drive. The paramedics have so far rarely attempted to teach me anything. If they do tell me something, I will tell them thank you and try to retain it, which is what I said in the thread before you replied. Did you see that? I am not sarcastic with them. I don't give them attitude. I do not correct them even if they are blatantly wrong. I do not go around work telling people what I think. Those guys probably aren't even sure if I know what normal saline is. I am frequently asked "Do you know how to spike a bag?" Trust me. There isn't a lot of clinical discussions between me and the paramedics I have worked with.
 
What the heck is a quick 6? Limb leads and V1 and V2?
 
DE has been mighty hostile lately...I didnt take anything you said as being rude or disrespectful so im not sure where all that came from.
 
I don't think he has been hostile.

There are always three sides to every story/situation. His side, their side, and the truth.
 
Ahhhh ok
 
If I ever run an ambulance, I will make my uniforms teal and periwinkle.

Why did you post that here?

Why is that nobody ever wants to consider that they may be part of the problem?

I suppose...but it does seem relevant to the thread about mentorship.

Having been on both sides of that type of relationship more than once, believe me, it's easy to tell when someone is only paying lipservice to what is being said, no matter how sneaky you or they think they/you are.
 
so I need to pick an HMO or PPO and I'm wicked confused. HMO is 2k deductible w/ 10k out of pocket max and like $20 copays. PPO is 4k deductible with same out of pocket max and $30 copays "after deductible". I get that HMO is managed and PPO I don't need referral, but I am confused about the "after deductible" part. So I pay full price until I hit 4k and then I still have to pay until I hit out of pocket max? Does the benefit of not needing referrals cost me 2k more?
