It feel awesome to have all my bills paid and still have some money left over.

In other news, I found out I'm on the ERT team, just nobody thought it was imperative for me to be notified haha.

No one really knows who is on the team until you get the phone call "hey, we are activated. I'm your strike team leader. You need to be at XYZ in 90 minutes" haha

Talk to the sups. They should have a piece of paper for you to fill out.

When I got sent out I was the only EMT on the team. There were only a handful of medic. That's just from our division. We probably have enough for at least 5 strike teams county wide

Talk to the old man and see if you can setup a time to come in and load up the application on one of the computers, go through, fill it out and print it out and attach all the documentation that they want. All of the certs should be archived on his computer.

I've heard you need to be FT though, but I'm not sure if it is true.

Anyone else ever have a friend call you an a**hole for calling the cops on them, because they were talking about suicide by cop? Nope, oh well.
 
Saw some deer when pulling out of the driveway and came home with some 00 buck and 30-06 ammo...hoping to get some food for the freezer before I leave.

Don't ever second guess yourself in a situation like that. You went with your gut instinct and I'm sure it was the right action.

I hope your friend realizes that in the near future.

I'm trying not to, althought I do have to admit I'm struggling with this.

This all happened because my friend was mad at me because I wouldn't sell him some pain pills and thought I was lying/ playing him. He then proceeded to tell me that he was going to commit suicided, I called the cops(even though I want much help), and then about 2 hrs later the guy texts me to tell me that I ruined his life and that I was an a**hole.

You may have saved your friends life. Remember that his state of mind is messed up enough to consider a permanent solution to a temporary problem, his lashing out isn't based on rational thought.
 
So it's less than 3 days before Christmas, and I've done literally zero gift shopping. I have zero gifts. While I'm making significant progress towards solving it, I'm still jobless and a little broke....but I still feel bad that I don't have anything for my family :( Maybe I'll just buy some giftcards?

You did the right thing. From someone who has lost someone to suicide, you were awesome doing that
