    Any jobs for EMT-Bs in Phoenix or Pittsburgh?

    I'm thinking strongly of moving to Phoenix or Pittsburgh area for jobs. Not sure where I want to go. Here in Casper, there is only one employer for EMTs, and thats the hospital. Everything else is either volunteer or Fire/EMS. I just passed my EMT-B class, and just need to submit my finger...
