EMS is not my job, my job is a network engineer at an I.T. firm. EMS is a volunteer position for me, so if I am on my way home from work in bad traffic areas or through a bad part of town that recently put under a special brand of law not used in over 20 years for gang violence and I don't...

No, but seriously. The reason I was hoping for an all in one is that the different applications I have inform my family where I am so they don't assume the worst or worry about me. Like if they text me they get an auto-reply or maybe an alternate voicemail message that says, "AUTO RESPONSE AT...

What is this...Off? I haven't heard of such an application

I was curious if anyone knew of an application that you could press one button on your phone and it would set up an auto-reply message via text, auto-deny calls and put your phone on silent or vibrate. I am a volunteer probie at the fire station and when I go on calls my family might try to...

Passed! c:

Second attempted and I passed at 79 questions! Just found out less than an hour ago! Super excited!

Alright, thanks. So it could be Mon or Tuesday till I hear back.

When I took it the first time, I took it on a Friday and didn't hear back till Tuesday. I took it Friday at 1:30 PM, actually a bit before that cause I was early. Ended the test and was in my truck from the testing center at around 3:00 after getting my stuff and all that. I wouldn't think I...

79 question cut off. Had to guess on 2-3 Had a handful I had to spend extra time on, 70-80% confident on them. Took me about 1 hour 15 minutes. I am super nervous. The first time I took the test I made it to 70ish, and it took me 30 minutes because I saw the timer and thats what I focused...

I can but not while out in the field.

I was at a meeting with some EMT's and one person brought up something I did during my clinicals and I don't wanna say I was insulted but without going into too much detail the person called me out without getting the facts or asking me first. I was doing my clinicals for school over the...
