It is sometimes much easier to change job than change policy...I like the idea of fire fighter pay/schedule etc, but have zero interest in becoming a fire fighter...if someone wants to become a fire fighter and is prepared to take on another role to be one then fair play to them. If someone is sick of **** pay in non-fire EMS and gets into FD then also fair play for getting out of a situation they weren't happy with. They are just working in the realms of the system that is already in place.
Getting annoyed with the local government and how they elect to do things is one thing, being bitter at someone for earning more pay, working less hours, and doing a job they might not have wanted to do (paramedicine), is another thing entirely.
In reality, if you knowingly go into a career field with poor pay, long working hours etc then you only have yourself to blame!! Life is short, either do something about it like change career, protest, get elected to change policy...or just stop complaining! Instead of worrying 'what the other guy is getting paid' or what 'he is doing', change your own circumstances and stop *****ing about the pay. You chose not to be in a high paying profession. I feel ZERO pity or understanding for someone who spends 20 years in a job complaining about the pay.
