i have been there to the building and talked with people and seen what i would be getting paid ....20cets less than i am now i can live with that, i can live with the 12 hr day, as it stand right now 70% of my weekly call volume is transports (interfacility and garbage) i can deal with it. anything is better than pa right now! hell i even considerd the 3 lettered monster in arlington.
id get both, the more ya can cram into your brain the better. but since im a bit advanced in age and prob wouldnt be hired thats one road i cant look down.
it was weird, when i worked at my fathers bar, one of the office personel worked at the local squad and invited me down to see what she does.
and that was it, a year later i was an emt and soon there after i had 9 letters on my arm.
