    Quitting a new job for a better company?

    Yep! If I get hired at Care, I'm definitely staying for at least a year & 1/2 so I'm going to take the IFT job for now

    Quitting a new job for a better company?

    I totally agree, thank you! I was just hesitant because I didn't think it would look good to leave a company after only a few weeks. How do you like working at Care? What's so bad about working in LA? Is it different/worse than OC?

    Quitting a new job for a better company?

    Thank you! :) Do you still work at Care? Really? Maybe it's different in SD but in OC, I don't think anyone would leave Care for Rural/Metro

    Quitting a new job for a better company?

    Hi guys! So I just got hired at an IFT company in LA. However, I am scheduled to test with CARE at the end of this month. CARE is truly where I want to work. Should I accept my current job offer and work there for the time being, then leave if I get hired at CARE? Or would that be distasteful to...

    How should I dress for a written exam?

    I'm going to be taking a written entrance exam at an ambulance company, should I dress professional or just casual? There is no interview or anything following the exam so I feel like jeans and a t-shirt would be okay, yes or no?

    Cheap physical exams in Orange County CA please?!

    Isn't that where Care sends people to do physical testing? In case anyone needs a place to get their medical examiner's certificate, I found a chiropractor who charges $50 without insurance. It was fast & he was really nice. They also have the DMV forms so you only need to bring your DL. Pure...
