You know you are an EMT/Paramedic when...

This happens to me all the time! Everyone asks "what are you listening for" All I can think is.. dont you hear the sirens?
 
you know your a EMT/ Paramedic when you hear a siren and jump up to see whats going on

Or you switch your scanner on (theres an APP for that)...
 
There is nothing wrong with joking around I am an newbie and I catch crap from everyone lol it just is part of the game.
 
When you park your POV, you try to depress an emergency brake that isn't there, shift into park via a steering column shifter that isn't there, and turn off a battery switch that isn't there.
 
In reference to above, when you no longer use w/ but rather č and everyone thinks your nuts. Along with š. those are supposed to be straight lines...
 
...... when a 5150 pt goes awol in the ED and the entire security team rushes in, and you just sit out side the ED and continue to reassemble the gurney.
 
when they've ran your butt day and night, you're dead tired and its like 3am and you find yourself having a conversation with said 5150 before they went awol :wacko:
