My sister is an EMT too and its fucked up how much you all enjoy cool situations where people are in really bad pain. She was all excited last weekend because a guy got crushed by a crane or something and she got to help tie the ropes to keep some sort of belaying device up.

12/6/2007 1:29:54 AM

Yeah, but what would society do without the fucked up people to do the crazy shit to save everyone else?

a good portion of us in the med profession are adrenaline junkies


so a cough doesnt get the juices percolating like death, dismemberment, gsw, code blue, exploding aneurysm bloodbaths, etc.

12/6/2007 1:34:42 AM

I don't enjoy the situations that people are in. I enjoy the challenge of perfection and helping people at some of the toughest moments in their life. Doubt there would be too many that do the things we do and give you a different answer.

12/6/2007 1:34:48 AM

Thats true, I do have respect for them and what they do, I just think its messed up when shes so happy about tying ropes when the guy was apparently in pain for hours trapped underneath the crane or whatever.

12/6/2007 1:35:29 AM

I'm a hardcore adrenalin junkie, but the thing I remember most about my first rescue was the look in his fiance's eyes when we came though against all odds.

12/6/2007 1:36:27 AM

is this something you are looking at as a full time profession?

did ^ do this full time?

12/6/2007 1:37:24 AM

See - I guess just from my sisters stories I've seen it differently. It might be because shes just been doing it for the last year or so so somethings are more exciting, but she never seems to know much about the people, just the situations.

^It's probably easier that way. I mean who could handle the emotional roller coaster of really knowing each and every person and they're situation every call every day?

^^Part-time until I finish paramedic school.

12/6/2007 1:40:26 AM

I don't mean it from that aspect - more from when she tells us about it (using the crane incident as an example) shes all about the ropes, and when we asked her how the guy was she said "i dont know, i think someone climbed down with him". But then again, her job was the ropes, so she might not have really known what was going on. Maybe I'm just being harsh

12/6/2007 1:45:43 AM

Yeah, at the site of an industrial extrication I'd expect her to be really excited about what she's doing. The medics would have been attending directly to the victim... It's amazing to me how little people working major incidents know about what is going on outside of what they are doing. I think a lot of it has to do with focus.
