Sorry I meant Core

Whats PUM?

So experience meaning years in service with their agency. Not years experience you personally have as a medic

The good thing is that eventually you should get raises and promotions ...unlike privates were you sometimes never get a raise

I wonder how the OT is??

Yeah I remember AMR would do that.. you jump on a 24 or 48 and work more hours but yet your expected to make the same so they would drop your hourly to keep it "Fair" ...

Thank you all for your responses and feedback... I'm gonna drive in to Austin on the 14th for the hiring process... Get a feel for the city, maybe its meant to be and I'll land a job with a legit Agency. Otherwise I'll go with plan B finish HVAC training buy a work truck and run a one man show...

Yeah I saw the rate but not sure if the schedule would allow to make more money. If u work 48 hour shift not bad or 2 24s ...but if you show up 4-5 times a week that's junk ...I'm trying to see if its even worth my time I have wife kids dogs....and my decision would impact everyone's life...

I just want to be able to make ends meet on the pay

I'm assuming no OT at this point huh? I'm just trying to figure out if I could even afford it... Otherwise I'm better off staying in LA area

Yes it is...

How much money can you expect to make during academy... Any OT??

I agree I'm just crammed up in an ambulance 5-6 days a week now bringing a bunch of books in not very practical... I have to re take my National registry in order to get my Texas state Paramedic license.

Does anybody know of a good Android App to prepare for National registry Paramedic exam.

Hey thanks for the advice I'm definitely gonna look into it

I worked there.... Its the worst job ever ...I was happier at Carl's Jr when I was a teenager

If its anything like the fire Depts here and ive only applied twice in 12 years its probably gonna be thousands of cool dudes trying get a shot at the title of hero

I've met a lot of their EMTs and Paramedics and they have all consistently said the same good things about their employment there... In fact its very common to see a more older and experienced crowd as well in addition to the younger guys...from the outside looking in I think it seems like one...

Thanks for the info...

Besides he does not seem to be *****ing he's elaborating on his observations. And he's providing a solution he's warning other new EMTs on the possible ambush ...they hire new EMTs and paint a completely different picture.
