Jen when she

Ruffems just so you know my opinion on unions I don't like any of them. I carry no discrimination on that fact.

Ya there are times in your career that you have to look like your doing something and I guess that was one of those times for me.

How is it clouded. From the beginning it was stated that the reason that paid paramedics were paid so badly is because of the volenteers. And I was making my opinion on the fact that volenteers are not the problem with your pay scales. My union is the one that goes to bat for us on wages why would it be any different for you unless your not union. I was basically talking about dustdevils comment.

filled with dirt

Why yes I do but what would that have to do with this. My patient care has nothing to do with my opinion of volenteers.

It has nothing to do with that vollys serve thier community more that you. It is the fact that this is career choice that you have made for yourself and you family. Vollys usally start to see if they like the career, or they see a need for thier service and can help out the community. I work with volenteer firemen and they are my best asset and I tell them that on every call I have. So if you think I was making the vollys better than paid in a community then you miss read what I was trying to say. Also the other point is that the vollys are not the problem in this, it is the representatives you that you have in your unions.

I was checking because it was the only one available. She was under the hood of the vehical and the car prevented me getting at any other part of her body other than the foot that was sticking out. After the fact the RCMP feel that the accident happened between at about midnight so she laying there for at least 7 hours. This may have been one of those incidents that you just had to be there. Hope that answers it. happiness ps of course once the car was removed we did a full assesment

I to have a seat belt story. I have always made my children wear them but I really was lazy in that respect for myself. Paged out at 7 am to MVA roll over. We don't get alot in my community so the adrenaline just pumps. My partner and I discused on our stradagy in general and did senerios in our head as it was 20 min away. When we arrived we were informed that the pt was under the car. All that we could see was a foot so we tried to find a pedal pulse with no success. We had to wait for the other emergency personal but we could see from the accidents was the cause of drinking and driving (just so you know bottle survived). So what we guess is that she was driving along and wanted a drink hit the soft shoulder going at an excessive speed and the car went airborn and started flip in the air. She was the ejected and some how her body moved with the car and then landed directly on her. (I call this my wizard of oz call). I was concerned that there was going to be alot of blood ect but she was just flat because of the marsh in the ditch. When we able to look inside the car there was not one damaged area. She may have survived if she was wearing a seatbelt. My boys were getting the drivers licence ages and they made a trip to the car to see that seatbelts do save lives. happiness

mother was watching

warmonger who was

Well don't some of us have our hackels up. I do get paid for my job as a paramedic. When our station first started they were completely volenteer and I commend them for the time that they took out of thier lives to make my community alittle safer. I personally would do this job without pay but that is not the way it is. Sometimes a station that starts our volly will eventually become a paid crew. Thats what happened with us. Just so you know I don't believe you guys get such crappy pay because of the vollys its because your union (if you have them) haven't been doing their job to make sure you are paid appropriatly and that you are recieving the proper benifits that you deserve, so maybe you should start with them not the ones who take the time to serve thier commuity.

congrats its sounds like your happy. i have 3 boys and am glad i didn't have the girl. boys will keep you on your toes at all times, so you have to learn to be one step ahead, they will always become a mama's boy at some point in thier lives and when they are going to be bad they do it right in front of you, no sneaking around like girls. enjoy your boy and take alot of pics. ps it takes about 8 months to get back to your normal size so don't rush that. happiness

in only spirit (please lets not try to kill off the boy toy mother will be pissed)

FYI Im for the queen charlotte islands and we just did a pack of emr's through out island. from what i understand is the training is very different then the pcp. if you haven't done your licensing exam please read everything in your manuals. not one person passed the written because they did think that there was going to be questions about what the didn't learn in class. so think outside of the box and read everything. iv been doing this for 12 years and i to have a full time job. you will get your best experience from the others that you work with and if they are good they will be patient and let you learn. good luck and i hope you enjoy your new found profession lisa
