hugs for evan

2/5/2008 11:12:17 PM

man, you don't go that long without talking to an employer. Regardless of how busy you are. They'll write your shit off.

2/5/2008 11:13:30 PM

You got fired. You're going to be a better person for it. It's in no way a big deal.

2/5/2008 11:14:01 PM

this sucks

2/5/2008 11:14:36 PM

srsly email? that's only for breaking up with girlfriends...

2/5/2008 11:16:34 PM

that's a nasty email and it's pretty fuckin weak to say somethin like that over an email and not respond to your messages.

I'm really dissapointed to see Cary EMS drop evan even tho he probably has more passion for the job than anyone else there.

their shit's weak, man. sometimes you gotta just let things slide for the better, they obviously don't know that.

2/5/2008 11:18:55 PM

^ yeah, he has so much passion for the job that he hasn't worked at in a month.

2/5/2008 11:22:10 PM

maybe if you didn't post on here all the time and went to work instead...

2/5/2008 11:23:03 PM

So is Raleigh EMS hiring?

2/5/2008 11:23:44 PM

ok...give us the e-mail addy....we all e-mail the guy and tell him to take [user] evan[/user] back or we refuse to get sick/have a wreck/heart attack.....then they will lose their shit...oh yeah...you can forget about ever selling another BBQ chicken plate....fuckers.

2/5/2008 11:24:56 PM

yeah concentrate on your school work or whatever else you got going on and reapply in the summer when you'll have all the time in the world. No need to get 'anxiety' over this. This is probably for the best, it'll give you a chance to diversify your resume instead of working at the same place forever.

How the fuck are you suppose to know the passion of the other EMS workers?? I'd guess that most EMS workers have a good deal of passion for what they do.

And evan barely worked there. It sounds like he was being more of a hinderance than help or they wouldn't have gotten rid of him. You don't get fired because you're a valuable employee.

2/5/2008 11:25:35 PM

HOW COULD THIS HAPPEN TO MEEEEEE?

2/5/2008 11:25:56 PM

2/5/2008 11:27:46 PM

haha

i can always count on tdub users to be complete dicks when i'm feeling the worst i think i've ever felt

thanks, guys


to those of you who aren't dicks: i really do appreciate it.

2/5/2008 11:28:53 PM

Sorry evan

you obviously have no idea what you're talking about, and frankly it's pissin me off that you're tryin to talk about somethin when you CLEARLY haven't the slightest clue as to what is really going on.

why don't you just keep your mouth shut when you don't know the half of it? i seriously don't know why people do this.

With the amount of work evan has going on between school, accapella, his condition, hockey med volunteer, countless other shit i don't know about, it's amazing within itself that he even found the time to volunteer for Cary EMS.

evan don't listen to these assholes.

well i can safely say that none of the other employees had nearly as much shit as evan had going on. and remember that evan WAS A FUCKING VOLUNTEER, IT'S NOT HIS GOD DAMN CAREER.

this takes us back to his passion for the job.

2/5/2008 11:40:01 PM

drama...for no reason

2/5/2008 11:40:47 PM

because it really did mean a lot to me. apparently you guys don't understand. you don't have to get paid to love doing something.

my email response:

Quote :

"honestly, i don't know what to say... even though this was completely my own fault, i'm really upset and distraught over it... i'm sorry for wasting your time and the effort you put in to my advancement. for what it's worth, i really enjoyed working with you and have thought a lot of you (both as a person and a medic) ever since I met you during the first clinical shift I ever rode. i wish things could have been different, but what's done is done. i understand that you are all busy as well - i wasn't denying that. i've spread myself too thin. it's very unfortunate, but i guess it took something as bad as this to make me realize it. i'll consider reapplying in august only if i've gotten my life and medical problems under control. the last thing i want to do is waste everyone's time again. i understand that it won't be easy - i'm pretty sure that i've lost the respect of almost everyone there. i've got all my uniform pieces ready to return, although i left my hat on a truck a couple of months ago by mistake and haven't been able to find it since. when are you working next? if you're there now, i can come tonight to drop them off. thanks again for the opportunity, and i can't apologize enough for wasting it. i really hope i'll see you again in august. things will be different - i promise. -evan "

Just because you can't make time for something in the space of a month, especially something as demanding as EMS work, doesn't mean you don't value it.

2/5/2008 11:41:50 PM

^^^that sounds like a desperate letter to get a girl back...instead its for ems...i guess i dont understand passion for volunteer work

You guess you don't understand?

It's pretty apparent to those of us who do understand that you don't understand. No guessing involved.

there it is, that's the barrier between the people who understand what's going on and those who don't.

2/5/2008 11:44:03 PM

haha what are you like his bf, chill out

2/5/2008 11:44:27 PM

well goddamn

now i know how people who get trolled all the time feel

2/5/2008 11:45:14 PM

hes having an anxiety attack over losing a job that he volunteered for that he hasnt volunteered for in a month...this all sounds retarded to me. i know hes your e-friend and all, but hes dramatizing this more than it needs to be

2/5/2008 11:45:26 PM

ahahahaha well actually, i was going to make an alias "evansboyfriend6969" but it was too long, that's why i just went with the kfc alias.....


strictly [nohomo] though.

2/5/2008 11:45:35 PM

ive been thinking you were that rtc407 user...i wonder who is then...

2/5/2008 11:46:09 PM

naw, i guess for what it's worth i'll deny that i have an alias, even though that'd be the typical approach.

2/5/2008 11:47:01 PM

Sorry evan. I sucks now but I'm sure things will improve.

2/5/2008 11:49:02 PM

Oh shit.

Yoshiemaster is pissed!

2/5/2008 11:51:35 PM

keep ya head up, mang. they'll likely give you another chance in august if you keep up the passion

2/5/2008 11:52:16 PM

i just hate when people say something about a matter when they have no fuckin idea what they're talkin about.... and it applies to anything.

2/5/2008 11:52:44 PM

seriously though, everything happens for a reason

2/5/2008 11:53:02 PM

i'll probably be agreeing with you in the morning

2/6/2008 12:05:01 AM

that's a pretty solid read, evan

2/6/2008 12:09:42 AM

dude, it's just a EMS job. I'm sure there are other EMS jobs out there.

2/6/2008 12:16:47 AM

assert "It's all going to be ok";

2/6/2008 12:17:12 AM

except assert never worked

hey, all i know is that this guy apparently has absolutely no time to do this ems job, doesn't do it for a month and is now crying because he got fired. well what do you expect? people work at places so that they can, you know, do work.

i really hope that you used better formatting in the real email

who do you think you are ee cummings?

2/6/2008 12:38:21 AM

i hope your earings were worth it

2/6/2008 12:41:03 AM

dnl contributing negative value to a thread, what a gaping surprise.

evan, my circumstances were entirely different than yours, but I know what it's like to get let go of out of the blue. It's among one of the most worst feelings in the world. But cheer up, at least you'll get another shot in six months.

2/6/2008 12:56:26 AM

dude you got fired from your volunteer job...

do you still have that highly coveted paying job? cause that's the one that matters.

2/6/2008 12:59:01 AM

my shit aint negative in my opinion

2/6/2008 1:02:00 AM

i would totally love to get out of some volunteer stuff and advance my real career.
