This whole internal transfer thing is confusing. I've heard there's a place I can look at internal postings before they get put on the company's public site, but I can't find it. Lol I'm tired and I'll just call HR tomorrow

I'm under a Tropical Storm Watch now.

For those who don't know, a Watch means that a TS or Hurricane Party is possible within the specified area.

30 minute call to dispatch today. They could hear radio traffic but no one could hear them. I decide to call them up and let them know we can't hear them. So they test their main radio, nothing. Back up radio, nothing. Back up radio to the back up radio, still nothing.

Of course while I'm still on the phone when them a code 3 call comes in. Dispatch is like "uhhh hey I need you guys to play dispatch until we fix the radio issue". So we had to stay on the phone with dispatch write down all the call information and then dispatch the units out. It was a different experience.

What a shift! It started at 8:05, just 5 minutes into the shift, and never stopped. Things were spaced out so it was a steady pace throughout the day. We had 6 runs in the first 16 hours, which isn't really all that bad. It was the 6 runs in the next 6 hours (from midnight to 6) that totally sucked! At least we got out on time.

I was out in the woods last night......I just found a tick in a very unpleasant place :censored:

You should see your doctor. Lyme and other tick-borne diseases are no joke.

Looks big. Does it come with a jet bridge to into it?

It's a Freightliner/Medtec
Seems like most ALS departments around here run them.

 

[bigbaldguy]

Would've thought they'd be BLS. Interesting!

Are most of the college services you've run in to BLS?

I did say medic but they are BLS unit. Honestly not sure what cert was of guy I met.

Ah, gotcha. Seems like there are few college ALS agencies, and nearly none with students as ALS providers, far as I can tell. Still, college EMS is a darn good thing!
