I agree with @angel if you cant deal with your own lifes problems, and resort to cutting yourself idk how you are gonna deal with seeing all the crap you will see in ems. Its a high stress job with long hours and all kinds of problems. That being said it still is an awesome job if you really...

I just got my first ems job as an emt-b. The way that area I work in is set up great for bls. Especially for those who want to learn a lot and go on a lot of 911 calls. I love every single 911 call I go on. I love the job. I love every minute of it. I get excited for it and look at every call as...

I think any one on any type of drugs that aren't prescribed should not have a job in ems. Or any real job for that matter. Excluding ciggs and alc, unless severly addicted to alc. Anyways if I can stay clean of drugs and alc for my job because I want to be a professional. Then you can to unless...

Man this thread gave me a good laugh. Someone is clearly a adrenaline junky. Anyways its scary to think this kid was allowed to perform cpr and start an IV.

I know cataldo hires medics at 16$ starting. From what I hear a lot of places here are always hiring. I got a job as an emt-b starting 12$. Cataldo hires emt-bs for 13.25. :O Lyons also starts emt-bs at 12$. Idk much about any other companies. If I got a job with no experience after only 2 weeks...

This actually made me laugh. Not loling but you know still pretty funny.

Ya I pretty much decided this already. There are no programs in this state for the summer. -.- Anyways I just wanted to get my intermediate because it would be something productive to do in the summer.

It took me 3 weeks to get the results from my practical. I then called and scheduled/paid for my written test and did it the next week. I was certified on the spot. I applied at 12 places over 3 days. O.o had a job 2 weeks after I was certified. Although I am still waiting to start.... I live...

All right thanks I will look into that college and contact my instructor.

I don't meet any of the options. Do I win the game?

I make so many threads. I know I am gonna hear it from someone some day. Sorry about it. Anyways I tried google my search came up with nothing viable. I am wondering where can I get my instructor certs. I only want to go for cpr instructor and first aid. I also want to go for my intermediate...

Ehh I dont think that will make a difference. I am gonna call them tomorrow.

Okay well this has been driving me insane. I have been waiting 2 weeks for the cori check to go through. The criminal back ground check and what not. I have had emails/phone conversations going back and forth between human resources and I. They usually end up like this. "The results aren't in...

Wow I feel for you guys. That is terrible that companies are allowed to do that. :wacko:

When you go to take a drug test for a company obviously the drugs will show up. However if you have prescriptions for them I am pretty sure it cant be used against you. As long as you show proof of prescription? As long as you can do the job with no problems you should be fine... I wouldn't...

That sounds unbelievably illegal.

This is a pretty generic answer but oh well. Sit down turn off your cell phone, get off facebook and read your book. Boring? Maybe. Will it work? Most likely. I suggest you read it 2 hours a day. The 2 hours can be seperate. 1 hour in the middle of the day 1 near the end of your night. Its...

If you did well in the class and studied it should be in your head somewhere. Just take a bunch of refreshers. Idk how much the course where you live costs but around here its around 1.5k. The refreshers are way cheaper. If you still have your book read that.

What company do you work for?

I read unnecesary as necesary. -.- So ya...
