Nice. What are their protocols and procedures like compared to your current job? And how's the pay difference?

An hour? I've got bad luck if I'm stuck inside one of those places for longer than 30 minutes
Girl hair + ADHD = hellish hair appointments. I can't even do the repetitive leg bouncing thing I tend to do in classrooms.

/raises his hand.
At least you only have to go once every 8-9 months. Try every 2-3 months, and often times I'm pushing it at rate since it requires coming dangerously close to mullet territory.

An hour? Holy heck! I don't think I have ever had to wait longer than 10 minutes for a seat and then it takes less than 10 to have my hair cut. Usually I'm in and out in like 15 minutes. Lucid, you should have been a guy, see, it is much easier!

Im a member of a state specific gun forum with as many members as EMT life and their version of this thread was well over 100,000 post. Now they open a new one every 20,000 post.

That reminds me, at one point there was a thread on JeepForum that the whole point was to get to 1 million posts. Not sure if it's still open, but last time I was there there were over 150k posts
EDIT: IT's still there and up to over 257k posts

I know!!! I've come absurdly close to chopping it all off. Can't bring myself to do it though. I'm no Demi Moore. I'd look like a freak.
Yes. And I practically bounce off the walls. I pace, do the stand up/sit down game, I like to bop my head in tune with ring tones and such, I wander around the room as far as my cord will stretch, sometimes I sit on one of those exercise balls and bounce, I've also managed to finagle my foot onto the lever that tilts my chair and launch myself forward accidentally. And I mean launch. It's like the dispatch self-eject button... but you have to be contorting your foot around behind you to hit it.

They're essentially twins in most regards since they both try to beat eachother out for contracts in the same region and both are hospital based. Both have RSI but apparently they don't have spinal clearance and are slightly less aggressive in a few things. Pay is also pretty much the same.
Though, at my current agency, I don't know of a single person who doesn't look favorably upon it, while the other agency is hit or miss. Really the only complain that I've heard in my 7 months with this agency (aside from pay) are the shift mandates, which were recently pretty much fixed.
Well, unless you're on usalfyre's side of the company

Pssssh, I love haircuts. It could be because I've gone to the same lady since I was 7 and because there's usually a lady there that brings donuts...but it could also be because I like having my head molested
EDIT: There's a thread on one of the Mustang forums I frequent that's at 125k posts, but 257k is just crazy

Someone convince me I really need a passport for my cruise. Please. I just can't see spending that much when a birth certificate will suffice.

Totally. And unless you have boyshort hair, you are paying an arm and a leg for the "long hair surcharge".
I could understand a long hair surcharge for like dying or something that is ridiculously ridiculously long.. but cutting an inch off is going to still be an inch regardless if it's above my shoulders or two inches below it.
And undoubtly when they molest it they tend to forget the otherside of the hair they're yanking is attached to an actual human scalp.
And god forbid you let an "ow" slip out, it's as if you just slapped them.

Cant you get the passport card instead? Cheaper than a passport and good for Mexico,Canada,and the Caribbean.
