I'm in the back 98% of the time, when i was new on an ambulance i would just keep looking where everything is. Now i just have loud conversations with the people up front or listen to music on my Ipod.

If we get down time and after all the station duties are done, and paperwork is caught up, I like to go hang out at Timmy's.

Ah, Timmy's is the best! Sooooo much better than starbucks. I was in Alberta for 10 days and I swear we must have gone there at least 15 times. Didn't help any that we could walk to it from where we were staying. :)

Sorry. A bit off topic..

I just attend the little party I carry around in my head!
 
play Guitar Hero or Rock Band or study.
 
my downtime while posting is almost always occupied by sleeping, smoking or thinking up new and clever ways to screw with my coworkers.
 
Catch up with coworkers I haven't seen in a while. sleep, watch TV. If we are out of a certain one of our bases we'll tune up and mess with our paintball stuff.
 
do homework :wacko: or sleep whichever seems most necessary at the time :P
 
I try to do inspections frequently during my downtime.

The insides of my eyelids require frequent inspections especially after running my :censored: off.
 
i seem to be doing nothing but homework now that school has started back up

Since right now both night trucks are staging side by side at UNM I might pester the other crew and take their vitals to keep me busy. Practice doing manual BPs is always good
 
BS, nap, eat, play XBOX with my partner.
