Seriously Linuss Have some respect.

Thanks jinx, thats pretty much the same thing that our book teaches as well.

Hello to everyone, I wanted to ask if anyone had any suggestions or tips on dealing with disasters such as a train wreck. I know thats pretty broad. I specifically wanted to know about triage tips but anything is helpful. How would you handle being the first unit on during a disaster? Thanks...

A good police officer may suspect something by someones demeanor who has just murdered and plans to do it again. But the point is he didnt stop so who knows what he was going to do. Why run? Because you have just done something good or plan to do something good in the future? Not convincing me.

That was hilarious but I really hope he knew that wasnt loaded before doing that to her. lol that was pretty good.

I can see your side of not pursuing sasha and to anyone else that has read and agreed. Like Linuss and others have said though, you have no idea what this guy just did, your absolutely correct he could be running because he has a suspended license. You could also be so totally wrong. He could of...

hand grenade i feel like that was a low blow to me????? She was asking what exercises we thought were the most important for upper body and i said bench which is very true, and decided to tell her that deadlift is very important for lifting anything which is also true. My second post if you...

Just remember its always gonna be the muscles that you hate working the most that need the most working. I promise deadlifts will help you tremendously with lifting anything. Be smart and start with light weight. Your not trying to impress anyone, leave your ego at the door and come in and lift...

I personally would say deadlifts no matter how good you think your legs are. This helps your lower back and hamstrings along with your grip strength which are key to lifting anything. As far as a key upper body movement I would suggest the bench press or dumbell press, just google both of them...

Im with you hockey. You know the post you read that makes you say "aright thats it, why am I reading these? Im going to bed." well this one did it.

Anything country and I am happy.

A duck hunter was out enjoying a nice morning on the marsh when he decided to take a leak.... He walked over to a tree and propped up his gun. Just then a gust of wind blew, the gun fell over, and discharged... Shooting him in the genitals. Several hours later, lying in a hospital bed, he...

because you arent their friend. you are their emt or paramedic. Right that is evident. Why not be a friend to them what will it hurt? Im not telling you to steer them down a path that you think best suits them, just be there for them. Act like you care, listen, and pretend like you want the...

I guess what I meant by playing shrink was asking what they were feeling and so on not diagnosing them or telling them what they should do because you are all right that most emts are not trained to do so. And why not play new best friend if it makes them feel better?

Why not try to play shrink or be there newest best friend. There is absolutely nothing wrong with asking them how they are feeling and what is bothering them. Also if you taking the time to do that and even pretend like your listening helps them get through it, then it was worth all your time...
