Looking for some different perspectives on this.....
I've been a long-time EMT-B... I think for almost 20 years now.
I've been on various small "volunteer" services. The current one that I've been on for the past 10 years seems to have what I call is "Turmoil in the Team".
Meaning that there is allot of talk between the members about other members and also our manager.
It almost feels like a social game if you will.... some are in the "in" and the rest is on the "out". Now I'm not excluding myself, I've talked the talk, etc.
however, I'm one who wants to see the service grow and expand and in general be open to new change, etc.
However, there are a few on the team that are totally opposed to it. Our manager is a friendly person but when in confrontation only hears one side and when decisions are made they seem very one-sided without any explanation what so ever.
I'm at the point where in just days I plan on turning in my resignation because I cannot handle all of what I call "turmoil" and I really want to see some changes and feel like perhaps I need to be the sacrificial lamb to make the higher ups know that change is needed.
I certainly don't want to throw anyone under the bus but it seems like if something is wrong it may be necessary to do so.....
I really enjoy doing the work I do but I don't get the same enjoyment out of it when the team is really not working as a "team" in my eyes....
