Welcome Rural Metro!

Are they just supplementing the RM medics, or did a bunch of them leave during the merger?

M&M? I figured I took a bullet covering Blythe, I may get the "golden ticket" for SD haha. Then I saw medic positions.

Yeah MM. I volunteered to go also haha
 
Any changes in the medic pay for SD now that AMR's taking over? Or would I still have to live in a 1 bedroom studio with 4 other people to afford SD?

Curious to see if Bowers/Pacific will raise their pay for emts. 20 cents above minimum wage on a 12 hour and $10.50 an hour for anything under 12 hours. When I hear its $12.48 an hour starting for emts at amr.

AMR starting pay depends on the division and if the that division is union or not. My non-union AMR division starts around the 10.40 range for EMTs on 12s

Uhhh I think it's around 15 something starting (my time as an EMT bumped my pay scale up so I'm not 100% sure on starting pay)

My starting pay with RM was $11.06 regardless of amount of hours here in Az.

It's 10.51 to be exact.
 
When I interviewed with bowers few years back pay was 11.something on a 8/10hr shift but if you worked a 12 hr shift hospital based then it dropped down to 9. Something. Hr assured me that it balanced out the same annually which is a rip off. You work longer shifts for lower pay. Off of this I declined their offer.
 
Yeah, those fluctuating rates are garbage.

We'll pay you $11/hr starting, but only on an 8 and we don't off 8s. So, on a 12 you'll be making $9.70/hr.

I was once told "It's to keep it fair."

Well R/M owns pacific and now AMR owns R/M so that would make sense. AMR now owns all of San Diego IFT as well.
 
I'm here in Texas at 18 an hour with a raise coming soon...

Yep. AMR is also sending down paramedics from other divisions to temporarily fill open medic positions for ~15 days.

I almost regret leaving R/M SD for the greener, yet browner, pastures of Kern Co.

Actually, there's still a handful of Mom & Pop BLS companies around SD City, and SD County that are key players in the IFT "game."
