busy

Life's been a bit hectic lately, I've been sent to other stations the past few shifts and haven't had much free time. I should get back to some resemblance of a normal life soon, and I promise to write more entries when I do.

Until next time....

and who are you?

Not much to write about from last shift, although we did have a third rider from the EMT class at the academy. I kinda felt bad for him, "third rider syndrome" struck.

A couple weeks before taking National Registry, EMT students have to do their clinical rotations, for this class it was 16 hours in the ER and 24 on the box. We only ran 4 calls all shift. One was around 1530, the other 3 stacked on us just as we were sitting down to eat dinner. He had to go on a crash-course of learning how to inhale your food instead of eating it.

At shift change he seemed a little disappointed. We tried to explain about third riders jinxing us to run fewer calls, and that the calls he went on were normal- bs calls (and, no, I don't mean basic service...at least on most of them).

Well, I got a bunch of chores to get done before work tomorrow... Take care
