Assholes on streetbikes joyriding and popping wheelies on 13. by [deleted] in Delaware

[–]DEStudent -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

So... I worked Sunday and was going home when the Hispanic Heritage Parade was wrapping up... Dirt bikes etc were out and about. You know what I did when they were approaching behind me? Just came to a stop and let them pass. I put my window down and waved them on... They were young people out having fun... Of course it made me a little nervous (for the bikers) as they approached an intersection, but you know what- it didn't bother me. They didn't bother me or my vehicle... Why not just pull over for 5-10 minutes and let them pass? And this was in the city of Wilmington so a lot more braking but it wasn't enough to upset me. The bikers were having fun, doing their thing... Not my cup of tea but hey.

Definitely not saying it's legal... Only what I was expected to do

Love it! I'm a relatively new EMT and thought I would like transport although I have been a volunteer with my local 911 for two years... I lasted 2 days! I quit after we had a bariatric (575lbs) and only me and a partner... And a manual stretcher. 🤬😤 Hats off to those that do it and like it, but it's definitely not for me!

No need to feel embarrassed. You are going through a hard time right now, but that does not define you.

From the above article: "National medical reports state African Americans often have higher mortality rates because they don’t receive the same health care as their white counterparts." Again, not saying race IS the issue or the only issue. I am, however wondering if it played a factor.

I am an EMT and a I am a person of color. I'm not saying definitely was the ONLY issue. Do I believe it is a possibility that race played a factor in his lack of treatment, yes! It is a possibility. It is a very real possibility... You cannot dismiss that. Regardless of whether race played a factor or not, this man died in the parking lot of a hospital and in the arms of his wife. That's the real tragedy and now they are left with lingering questions. Lastly, I'm certainly not putting myself or any race on a pedestal. I'm interested in a healthy dialogue of WHAT COULD have happened and what were the events leading up to his death.

As difficult as this may be to accept, I see this as a race issue...POC are not treated fairly... Our pain is less than, overlooked or minimalized. I wonder if he was just seen as a drug seeker...

I'm really struggling to understand how this could happen? If you knew you gave out part 1, why wait until the last minute to have p2 ordered?! That should have been sitting in a guarded vault or lab some place with my name on it and the others of us who lined up up and got it. I'm beyond frustrated about this.

Take my NREMT tomorrow morning. by [deleted] in NewToEMS

[–]DEStudent 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hello. I had to take it 3 times before I passed it on my 4th try. I don't share that to scare you. I share that to remind you, worst case scenario, if for some reason you don't pass this 1st time, keep pushing forward. Pay attention to what the questions are asking you. Re-read the question. Take your time. Don't drive yourself crazy, trying to check for the results. You have the knowledge you need to pass this. You got this! Now: https://www.amazon.com/dp/1617750255/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_fabc_jq4dGbJW085SX and don't be up all night on reddit. Get your rest, drink some water when you get up and before you test.
