IAFF at it again....

[Kiwiology]

The path of the righteous EMT/Paramedic is beset on all sides by the iniquities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil Hose Monkey Unions. Blessed is he who, in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of the darkness.(and budget cutbacks) For he is truly his brother's keeper and the Saviour of ill children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who attempt to poison and destroy my brothers and sisters of the EMS cloth. And you will know I am the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon you !

Oh my eyes, I have seen the glory of the coming of the Lord!

Can I get an Amen?

[aussiephil]

Bless you brother Phil we will forgive thee.

I have no idea where some of you come from but out here we would never, NEVER put a firefighter on the floor that was not AT LEAST an EMT. LOL. Beside who is going to conduct patient care if the Firefighter is not there or trained?

The answer is Pre Hospital Medical Professionals also known as Paramedics.

[Richard B the EMT]

The answer is Pre Hospital Medical Professionals also known as Paramedics.

Don't leave out the Pre Hospital Medical Professionals known as Emergency Medical Technicians. I'm feeling generous, so let's add the Certified First Responders, too.

[Kiwiology]

Oh bah, we have Intensive Care Paramedics who from 2012 will have Advanced Degrees. They sound way cooler

In all seriousness, I keep this posted above my desk as a reminder to keep fighting the good fight. I dont think there is any need to insert any words to make the meaning readily apparent...

Then looking darkly swift footed Achilleus answered: “I cannot forgive you. As there are no trustworthy oaths between men and lions, so there can be no love between you and me, one or the other must fall before then to glut with his blood Ares the god who fights under the shield’s guard. Remember every valor of yours, for now the need comes hardest upon you to be a spearmen and a bold warrior.

There shall be no more escape for you. You will pay in a lump for all those sorrows of my companions you killed in your spear's fury.

Somedays, my anger runs deep.

What concerns me the most abou their "resolution" is these words below:

RESOLVED, That the IAFF pursue two seats on

40 the CoAEMSP Board for EMS Education program

41 accreditation to assure that fire departments seeking

42 accreditation have the necessary votes to be

43 successful; and be it further

44 RESOLVED, That the IAFF contact the National

45 Registry of EMTs and...

To me this means that even if an agecny does not have their stuff together, and even if they have some "issues" the IAFF was "ASSURE THEY HAVE THE NECESSARY VOTES TO BE SUCESSFUL"... to me this just sound like STANDARDS BE DAMNED, we will get our IAFF buddies acredited... WTF ??????

[Kiwiology]

come comrades let us unleash untold ferocious and passionate anger and unrelenting vengence upon the devils in red trucks who seek to destroy the progress of the talented and passionate paramedics seeking elevation of paramedicine!

where is pastor turnip when you need him

[CBEMT]

Thanks for reminding me to check for results....

Resolution 17: IAFF Designated Seats on CoAEMSP Board and National -- Adopt as Revised

I can only imagine what the "revision" was.

Hmm.....

Resolution 25: Minority Outreach -- Rejected

Comment unnecessary.
