Topic	Is the stress of being an EMT worth the money?

Not sure what their work life is like and they're likely on the lower end of the pay spectrum. Consider also that even the private companies that don't have a 911 contract and only do interfacility transports also have ALS units because sometimes they need to move patients with different IV drugs. Typically an EMT isn't even allowed to do such a transport. So even among IFT companies there is a split between BLS and ALS. --- Dielman on Rivers: "I've tried to get him to say s--- or f--- and all he'll ever do is say, 'Golly gee, I can't do that." <cite>ThePrinceFish posted [p:893269615] in Is the str...
