~75k last year on the fire side with 72hrs OT. When I switch to EMS next year, it'll jump to over 100k.
Oh, and no need to drop 337k for a house down here unless you want to live with the rich folk

$126K on an international contractor assignment.
Average over the last decade, about $85k per year with moderate OT (72ish hours per week).
Base pay in my area is around $48-56k for the ground 911 services (24/72's or 42 hour week Kelly) and $50-56k for the air services (same schedules).
House was less than $200K, 4/2.5/2, built in 2008, 2800 sqft.

Our basics make 48k and that's before overtime, you could probably add about 10 - 15% for overtime.
Anyone looking for work? I have openings.
Is that PCPs who make that as there is no Canadian jurisdiction that uses the term EMT Basic. Because the Canadian version of the EMT basic is the EMR. PCP are equal to EMT I. Dose Saskatchewan use the CCP designation because Alberta doesn't. Alberta is pretty much the odd duck of Canadian EMS because they still use the EMT designation which the rest of Canada call PCPs.

1,000,000 dollars! But the check the old homeless guy at the gas station gave me bounced. That still counts though right, cuz that's what I tell the ladies I made this year
As a volly I'm probably still paid more than I'm worth.

Yeah, but you won't get to be next to Disneyland, which is well worth it.

Other than that I've pulled 60k a year... But mind you that living with my parents at 18 as a touring audio engineer/video tech depending on what concert I was assigned too... I was making around 60$ an hour, 18 hour shifts and I got OT for those. Sigh.. I miss the good economy...
Now I get like 20k as an emt-b...

Um. No its not. Don't kid yourself.
Sounds cool, I only have one word for you IATSE, it's way better than ems.
Ya, I miss it.. I still work major events when they come around.. but it's just side work.. I have friends that tour still, which is cool...
But I don't enjoy it like I do EMS...

It stops being happy after you've been backstage everywhere and had a free unrestricted pass for last 4 years.
I worked there for seven years, IATSE, I still love it, but the fire thing has a better retirement 3%@50 and all the OT I can stand.

I love the concert atmosphere, my favorite were the country concerts.. Geeze, the coolest people I've ever met... One of the few places the artists sit and talk about life with the little ol' engineers.
