This is true, but they also always want that "gay friend", so it could backfire

So after decent amounts of alcohol, we ended up pulling out a tourniquet and "vein creeping" on each other, that's normal, right?

Pretty normal for medic people. but according to others from the "outside" we are really wierd. So it is all in your perspective.

It looks like I'll be missing Halloween this year, I think I'll just hang out at home and avoid all the crazies

Long live the D5W.​

So the EMT/Paramedic Facebook group shared my demotivational picture, and half the comments are "I don't get it."

Are people really this detached from current events? It's not like the Occupy Wall Street, 99% movement is obscure anymore.

I didn't get it.

I don't pay attention to the political bs.

I'm wondering if I'm going to get lynched for this?

 

[JPINFV]

Have you heard of the Occupy Wall Street movement?

I honestly didn't know what it was either. The only news I hear is what goes over our unit radios. As for TV I don't watch news and DVR comes in handy to skip past things. My days off include getting away from electronics and go camping. Or sleeping.

And I'm not a registered voter so it's less of a reason to keep up with the news lol.

 

[Handsome Robb]

Heard of it. Don't know a whole lot about it. I didn't make the connection between the two.

edit: my tv watching consists of sports and Cops hahaha

I have to clear my pager 3 times a shift. But we get 3 pages per call also.

We get two. Half of these are "advise status". My status is about to quit!

And our pagers hold 30 pages.

We get 2 sometimes 3 pages when the call gets dispatched giving us info on the call (location and c/c). When we arrive at the hospital we get 2 more. One with our times and then another telling us to get facesheets. And then finally one more 10 mins later saying they put us available to take a call. So it's a total of 5-6 for one call. Then the various post movies, "please remember to go on scene via radio" and open shifts.

My vibrator I mean pager is constantly going off.

See men, this is what happens when pagers don't have enough memory.
