Ahh dont you love that? I once responded from DRMC to cactus city rest area for a TC (2nd in), got canceled and rerouted to a 911 in 79's.

32 to 37's once at 2am The literally could have driven to the ER and back before we got there.

Oh nice. Once I went from 32 to 30's at that ungodly hour and we transported, those are never fun calls when you have a nice drive ahead of you.

High desert would be AMR Victorville. The "true" desert would be AMR Palm Springs.

 

[terrible one]

Rancho Divison - Rancho Cucamonga, Upland, Montclair, Ontario, Fontana, and Rialto

Redlands Division - Bloomington, Loma Linda, Redlands, San Bernardino, Devore, Yucaipa, and Highland

Or pretty close to that. But working for AMR in San Bernardino county you can go anywhere in the county or even into Riverside County. It wasn't uncommon to see valley divisions running calls up in the high desert. I also ran calls in the valley working for AMR victorville

Good to know. Well maybe if they call me back in two months I'll get to run a few calls with y'all and see why 30 to 32s is such a big deal haha

Now do it in a box! It's scary being behind the truck on their way up there.

It's always fun when the medic has to pop zofran when you transport from 30's.

Time to get slick tires, lower the ambulance's suspension, and add a spoiler.

Sweet, just got the email from Honolulu, I passed the HFD written test with a 90/100 next step is the Physical Ability Test, which they'll schedule based on test scores (highest selected first)

So I've been thinking about taking a new job. Better hours, better pay, better scheduling, better equipment, just a better situation all around.
Only downside is (and it's a big one) a 1hr 45min commute each way for 12s. Part of me thinks I can make it worth while at 40mpg, but then I think I'm just crazy.

Maybe look at moving closer?

You're not crazy. I commuted 299 miles one way for a 72 hour shift. Granted it was a 3 day shift, but still. 299 miles one way (598 in a week) in a 4x4 truck that gets 18mpg on a good day. Now thats crazy.
