Can anyone recommend any of the following:
gear for my car: as much as will fit, but make sure you have a defibrilator and an intubation set for sure! Also see if you can squeeze in an "M" O2 cylinder.
pants: My comments about this could get me in big trouble, so I will refrain.
boots: Stiletto heals for sure. and something that comes to the knee or higher.
belts: I already posted a pic in the belt thread
books: You're such a kidder, you know you don't need books to be in EMS. Besides if you waste money on books, you won't be able to get as much gear for your car.
classes: EMT-B, but only if it doesn't take more than 2 weeks. 20 weeks for medic, But why? You could just get an IV cert, an ET cert, and a handful of drugs approved by your medicl director and do everything a medic does anyway.
certification vs degree: Cert. hands down. What good is a degree? Best to work for a fire department. You won't fit in unless you do the minimum possible.
knives: At least 2, one really big one that some guy from the outback would carry on is back, and one to hide in your boots.
guns: Well you will need a long arm, something with a high rate of fire and good penetration. A side arm, somethign that feels good in your hand, and a backup weapon you can easily conceal. Might want to put a really big gun on your car too.
stethoscopes: Somethign that costs more than a week's pay. The more expensive the better. Especially if it is electronic and amplifies sound. Because like listening to a language you don't understand, increasing the volume somehow imparts you with that knowledge. (You'll especially need this for sounds that are described in the books you don't waste money on)
lights for my car: Cmon newb! At least 2 light bars, some grill strobes, and one facing out of each window.
I really need help.
