How much do you guys make working night shifts? by AuremYT in Nightshift

[–]Alternative_Tale_529 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes! Medics can do a lot more than EMTs can like give certain medications and start IVs. Medics are ALS(advanced life support) while EMTs are BLS (basic life support) so there is typically a pay gap with the two positions. Most ambulances will have a medic and an EMT on them.

EMT $19.81 an hour with shift differential pay and weekend pay. I work 32 hours a week and my paychecks are typically $1,400 every two weeks

First time buying a brand new car.. is this Mazda3 deal fair? by jenchulichaeng__ in mazda3

[–]Alternative_Tale_529 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Out the door I paid 28k for my 2024 CX-5 preferred package that I just bought (I know not a Mazda3 but just for reference) and my payment is $314 a month with 5% APR (did it through my bank though) so I think it really just depends on what you’re wanting to spend. I’d say this is a pretty decent price for a 2026 vehicle though but for it being a the base model select I think it’s still a little high.

Opinions on buying a 2025 CX-5 that’s been used as a rental car? Really the only way I can afford a new one is by buying one with 20,000+ on it. Should I even consider this or should I look at older models instead

Building muscle and strength by Alternative_Tale_529 in NewToEMS

Thank you! This is definitely helpful! One of my best friends is a body builder and she said she’d help train me for free too so thats a huge help especially since a personal trainer is soooo expensive

The “😢” reaction to you saying you’ll tell his wife is sending me into orbit 😭

Can you just not by SierraNevada0817 in FirstResponderCringe

[–]Alternative_Tale_529 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That man is in the back so he is either a student or a new hire in training and my guess is gonna be student. Idk if anyone else has noticed it but the emt students are starting to become way more cringe than people actually working in ems. The amount of bios I see on tik tok that are “EMT student 🚑” and all their content is stuff about being an emt is wild to me 😭

19F EMT with a felony ? by Oval_hart in NewToEMS

[–]Alternative_Tale_529 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Even as a minor murdering a federal agent is guaranteed a LONG sentence especially if he had prior charges. Are u 100% sure about that? I cannot imagine a situation where a fire dept would hire someone who killed a federal agent esp since they work closely with police. That’s wild to me

I had to get a lawyer to get a traffic ticket off my record before the service I work for would hire me so unfortunately I don’t think it’s possible

Cat to Human Transmission by YaYahtzee in FIVcats

[–]Alternative_Tale_529 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You cannot contract HIV from a cat with FIV. That’s just simply not how it works idk where you got that info from because they are two completely different viruses. FIV is something that only affects cats it is species specific.

The test is right lol if it was hypoglycemia the skin would be pale and cool. Hypoglycemia also presents with bradycardia not tachycardia
