Same. And ever since a call right at the beginning of a shift that got me covered in vomit and horse manure, a spare uniform...

To clarify... This isn't the walk of shame you'd want to take into work. It's the get off of work that night, go have "fun" on the town, go back to work in the morning-variety shame walking.
While I did have my uniform in my car, I fo shiz needed a good shower.

To further clarify, she meant alcohol fun, not nookie.
Interesting, people do that kind of thing at my division all the time.... Yet another reason why I really need to get a transfer, but, for now, I'm stuck.
oh, my uniforms stay at station!

You working for an IFT or 911 service? Hopefully in about a month I'll have my medic license and will be up to moving about 2 months after that. I just need out of here

No matter where you go, there will always be people who like to have fun with friends after work. Some of those people don't like to drive under the influence and stay at a friend's house over night, then drive home in the morning to shower. If people at your division suck, I guarantee there's more going on than just grabbing beers after work.

I often find the people who are annoyed by it are just ticked off because they weren't invited.

Like hospital to hospital or nursing home to hospital or hospital to nursing home. Very few scene responses like with 911, you're more of an expensive taxi, only with sicker customers and chances to improve on your assessments, vitals, and questioning.
Real IFT is the really sick people, the ones going from one ICU to another. Those having active MIs, high risk labors, the acute, dramatic stuff. Unfortunately at my company, the CCT medics handle those calls...

Oh, Gilly, dear, I wasn't commenting about your choice to go home and shower. I was commenting about how many of my coworkers will stop drinking maybe 2 or 3 hours before they have to work, drive their drunk rear ends to the station, crash out on the couch, get up maybe half an hour to an hour before they start, shower, and start work, sometimes still drunk.... (most of the ones still drunk can often times hide it well enough to come across as merely hung over)
And, Sasha, I'm not upset about the walk of shame people, I'm upset about the ones who do as stated above.
