What's with you guys and your pickups?

Why not a Subaru like us practical (and effete) New Englanders?

Can't throw a atv in the bed of your Subaru.

Some of us like to go on roads where you need a lot of ground clearance to make it... that and I'm not a fan of the Lezbaru...

8.7" on the Outback, not bad - plus with a little upgrade to the tires, I'd wager you could do more.

Can't throw a atv in the bed of your Subaru.

Now this sounds valid to me - you can tow it, of course.

I was going to snarkily reply, ahh, but you can:

(Probably actually couldn't, but it is hilarious looking, no?)

We broke 100 degrees today. I'd love some 30 degree weather right now.

I made the news... granted i'm in the middle of a highway screaming at an old lady, but hey Face time lol. I'd love 30 degree weather too, we are chillin' at about 10-14 for the next 3-4 days i think.

You know what that means right? Ice cream!

I think it means sleep if im honest , after i shovel of course.. I think our total was 26", but somehow city of albany decided to plow the odd side of streets, block people in. And then expect them to move their cars to the even side that is unplowed, not to mention they have to excavate themselves from 8' of snow on top of their cars lol. But fk all that i got a driveway.

Well that was kinda easy. A coolant line from the tank was clogged... How did I discover this you might ask? My radiator was bone dry. Ugh. At least it is kinda fixed

Celebrating getting through two more interviews tonight, and getting an (unofficial until the paperwork is processed) offer tonight. I'll have another few beers for ya. Hopefully you're on the back end of that 48

I'm doing another 48 (hopefully "just" a 48, not a damn 50hr shift like last time lol) this Fri-Sat at a busy station and my normal station....will require beer on Sunday I can already predict (unfortunately not too much cuz my next regularly scheduled shift is on Monday....)

In other news, one of the guys at our company just completed backgrounds for ATCEMS.....so I shared this on his FB:

Got hired as a part time Firefigher/Paramedic for a little district in the county that runs an ambulance.

Plot twist: I'm not, nor have I ever been a firefighter.

Just in time to chime in on that firefighter EMS thread (half kidding).

As for my 6-days off, ground shift tomorrow, PALS Friday, and probably take the weekend off for once; might do a holiday shift Sunday, we'll see though.

Muchos gracias!

Unfortunately not. On until 0800 Friday.

With that said...Friday is St. Patrick's day so I'll have my fair share of beers then!

I'm currently putting off charting. My trade off so I don't feel like a complete bum is sweeping and mopping the whole station. It's our daily chore anyways but on busy days like today our engine crew, who's generally a slower crew, usually takes care of it for us.

Hey I just dropped two more applications and am still on a wait list. No call backs or interviews yet this week but I'm calling out to all of them tomorrow.

 

[Jim37F]

I'm starting to get anxious waiting to hear word back from my last interview myself...

Anxious is where I want to be, I'm tearing my hair out waiting here. Lol. My last job was downsizing and so that kinda gave me the kick in the butt to move to EMS. I guess I didn't see the part that said "march 1 tentive based on operational needs" in that moment because alot was going on at once. My interview went great and I did excellent on the tests , but now I'm sitting home all day waiting. (Luckly I saved up about four months worth of bill money just in case)

 

[StCEMT]

About to drop an app with the one non fire based service I know of back home. Really want this to work, I don't want to transfer to the new AMR out there and be stuck doing transfers all day....Or work for AMR.
