I don't understand what you are saying.... the people on the ambulances are all paramedics.

 

What about them? they have lots of training too??

 

I'm sorry. I just realized you have different terminology. Your Primary Care Paramedic is equivalent to what we call an EMT down here. Not much they can do. The Advanced Care Paramedic is equivalent to Paramedic down here, which is what I do. The Critical Care Paramedic is almost the same as what our Critical Care medic is too - a few more advanced skills.

Just curious about pay. And YES I am certain they have ALOT of extra FF classes they had to take for working where you're at.

 

For one thing, your not allowed power tools, everything has to be pnuematic or haudralic due to hazardous atmospheres. Try doing all your insane critical rescues while also wearing a 50 Ib, air tank on your back.

 

Yep. Everything all the way down to flashlights has to be intrinsically safe. When I did my confined space training it was all done with air tanks. We went to auburn Alabama university and played in the sewers. I'm guessing they have to be HAZMAT technicians too?

 

dishes finished, now waiting on

 

I have some laundry to do too.

 

B...... my laundry needs some assistance too....



and stephy, yes everythings gotta be intrinsically safe as well. also, there are instruction manuals telling us not to strick our tools against the steel walls in hazardous environments.... you know so we don't create sparks accidentally

 

Um yeah.... Sparks would be very bad..... send your laundry over here, I'll put it in with mine.

 

$150/load of laundry + shipping marcel

+$25 if you want it folded

 

Last time you were going to ship me a Canadian, it was all lies... you were gonna ship me an empty box. Plus, he was gonna hire me as his personal assistant medic at $20/hr up there. Soooo, if you ship him here does this mean I have to pay him?

 

Just ship him down here. It would be much cheaper for me. Then I don't have to pay moving expenses.

 

but you could make lots of money up here and live in a more tolerable temperature environment

 

But I'm not good and handling winter weather. Brrrrrrr. And I would have to bring my brother, sister and her two kids. I'll drop her husband in the ocean on the way.

 

lol

 

He's a mean person.

 

that sucks

 

Yep. He's on thin ice. So are you shipping Marcel unknowingly or do I have pack my Klan ip and head north?

 

i forgot aboot the size of marcel, he's gonna be an issue to try and ship.... maybe if you send me some sedatives, i can just tie him to a train or transport truck...
