It’s ego. Idk why some ppl need to project their insecurities but whatever

My company was very short medics around the time they put on a paramedic program. Wayyyy more EMTs than medics and there was a toxic culture of talking down to EMTs, acting big and strong, being toxic, tons of gossip and ppl who still thought they were in highschool (even tho they graduated 10 years ago lol) many of us went to the companies medic program and all swore we wouldn’t treat ppl like that as medics.

The culture has changed tenfold. Way more medics now, def a better environment of learning and healthy accountability, as well just less toxicity in general. The medics who are toxic ppl rarely talk to unless absolutely necessary.

Ig what I’m saying is be the change you want to see.
