the 100% directionless thread

And wake up and crap excellence at the best ambulance company in da world that does backup 911.
 
It's a good workout, I really enjoy it.
 
I've been on the phone with my cable/internet customer service for a couple days now trying to figure out why I have no TV or Internet service. Today, I finally got ahold of a real person who said there was a hold in our service due to a past due balance. Hmm. Okay, not sure how that happened, but I'll call my roommate who is the account owner and we'll get it straightened out. Finally got it fixed, and the past due balance was a grand total of 18 cents. I mean, I've lost more change in an average afternoon in between the couch cushions.

Oh brother. o_O
 
The following are simply a few things that fly through the cobwebs of my mind from time to time and my unhappiness at work is now causing sleepless nights. The heart is willing and the mind is strong but life has taken its toll on my body. Am I too old?

Am I too old at 53 for EMS again? Working for the same company for so many years as a field paramedic in a busy system (9-13 calls in a 12 hour shift). Promoted to Management position only to be laid off along with other department managers during a R. I. F. in 2012. Unemployed for nearly one year (what a B*#CH) as trying to find a job at 50 yoa is not the easiest. Working as a Safety Consultant (nearly 3 years) for the state now and I have never been more unhappy. So I am old, overweight, S/P lumbar laminectomy (L3-4), Moderate to severe Osteoarthritis of the left hip...................................
 
Apparently there was a packet that I was supposed to pick up from Guardian. I went back and looked at what I was sent as far as instructions as to how to apply and what my requirements were. I still didn't see anything about a packet and having to write a essay. I'm feeling really bummed. Now I have to wait until Spring to reapply.

Your not too old. I have a couple of years on you. I would be more concerned about your back and hip issues. I always say two area to avoid in EMS are management and dispatch.
 
I met my partner's goats at work today. I also got a bunch of apples and tomatoes from her produce stand! It's good to know some farmers.
