Richard B the EMT Posted March 28, 2008 Share Posted March 28, 2008 I consider myself a decent EMT, but, without the proper training of a paramedic, to assume paramedic duties, Inspector "Dirty" Harry Callahan, of the San Francisco Police Department said it best A man has to know his limitations!

spenac Posted March 28, 2008 Share Posted March 28, 2008 So easy a basic could do it. If I were a paramedic under his command I would demand he be fired for insulting my profession. If not fired I would resign. No one with any self respect would tolerate being talked down about like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dustdevil Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 If this guy ever loses his job (which he should have years ago), at least he has a bright future awaiting him in DC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
