When I spill my coffee the day is over.

Also, we broke into a patient's house earlier at a family member's request only to find out that a neighbor took to the patient to the ED earlier. Oops, I don't think we did any damage at least.

CS gas isn't nearly as bad as I expected.

I got my account suspended for the things I said to him.
I think I would have enjoyed the popcorn from the sidelines... twice. I imagine if you got "suspended" there, it must have been quite the spectacle!

Haha can't complain about the schedule! Are you going to get stuck on two 12s now?

What the hell is wrong with the people in this world. How can you hurt something so small. I just don't understand it. It's not ok. I want to go home.

Yeah my new schedule sucks a little bit, mostly because I cant drink as much as I would like. 24 on Thursday, 18-0600 Fri-Sat. I can hack it until January though.
That sounds pretty brutal dude. 24 followed by 2 graveyard 12's back to back to back. All this on top of having absolutely no weekend off. I salute you kind sir. Lol.

Its really not that bad. My 24 will see about 4 calls, and we do not post so 12s are not bad. Followed by 4 days off. I still have the rest of the week and sunday funday to drink/play golf, so it could be worse. Ideal? No, but that's what happens when you are the new guy bidding on a seat.

24/72 FTW. I feel unemployed, but with a sweet paycheck. Thinking of picking up a part-time gig in the Houston metroplex. Anyone know a place that hires PRN up thataway?

That or getting into another field entirely, like automotive or maybe sales.

My last 24 just about killed me. We were in quarters for maybe three hours total. 12 calls and a few move ups.

Sounds just like my last 24. Thirteen calls (with a couple more being canceled en route). Maybe two hours of sleep, broken up into different segments

Yup. I slept on a couch in the common room for two hours with the TV on because a medic needed to have it on because of his tinnitus.
