A friend used to be an ER nurse and tried to gross me out with stories from the ER until I told him about some of the body recoveries we did in the Coast Guard, the ones where the coroner met us at the dock.@Garvey -...Paramedic students earn their chops with the scrub brush in there.
do it without complaint, you will have the best clinical rotation ever.
Its the understanding that most of what we do isnt glorious, just work, often smelly and gross.
Don’t be talkin’ shit ‘bout @TheGerman’s girlfriend like that!

Or... the upside down sammich maker!
You havent lived until its summertime in Texas, the back of the bus is hot and you hook up the monitor on a big titted old lady who hasnt washed for weeks under that 5 pound bag of mammary. All that warmth just sends those smells oozing out. Its worse when she laughs. The achohol swabs? Well it takes several while the left hand tries to hold up the 5 pound scent flap. Some tits are not good tits.You ain't no Paramedic unless you've started an IV on a big ole titty vein before.
Falls under the “if it’s stupid and it works, it ain’t stupid” category.
WHO THE HELL TAUGHT YOU HOW TO MAKE A SAMMICH???
Define "works."Falls under the “if it’s stupid and it works, it ain’t stupid” category.
I did my EMT cert years ago. Never officially worked as one, just did the training. The all-nighter ER stints during training were interesting. I’m sure it would have been an eye opener to have continued.It's ugly out there.
I'm sorry I exposed you to it.
But that's the way it is.
Did good last night, then cancelled out the good with a typical comment. Homeless guy got hit by a car. Compound fracture to the tibia just above the ankle. Cut the jeans leg off ,cut the sock off. Bandaged, vacuum splinted, loaded him on the cot, and the ambulance took off. Back at the station, "the cleanest thing on that guy was that white bone sticking out of his leg".
We won't go to hell, but when we get there God will say "I gotta let you in. But you Firemen go over there. Don't talk to anyone."
She's making the bread first you silly boy... thats after I walked in to help!WHO THE HELL TAUGHT YOU HOW TO MAKE A SAMMICH???
