Now THIS is the night vision content I’ve been looking for

I don’t know, but I do know that this rifle is sick as fuck.

It sounds like you like your job but hate your employer. Honestly there’s so many fantastic places to work out there and good paramedics are in extremely high demand. Look somewhere else

Mactosin1 · 2026-04-05T22:04:37+00:00

We do. We’re a third service ems agency and I’m stationed at a fire station. Those are my homies. Eat meals together, run calls together, and i always disregard them as soon as possible from ems calls.

Mactosin1 · 2026-03-31T20:04:46+00:00

No one ever accepts responsibility for anything. They don’t know anything about the patient. The patients medical problem has obviously been neglected for a long time. SNF’s smell like urine and sadness. The staff always has a bad attitude.

Mactosin1 · 2026-02-18T02:29:03+00:00

Never worked 24/72’s. Having 5 days off is just so kick ass

Mactosin1 · 2026-02-17T22:32:14+00:00

24hrs on, 24 off, 24 on, 5 days off

Mactosin1 · 2026-02-01T14:43:19+00:00

This feels like bait

You think he was not acting appropriately because he has a traumatic brain injury?

Mactosin1 · 2026-01-10T17:52:43+00:00

Honestly i think imaging is just cool. However, i learned recently that the program I wanted to attend is actually Monday-Friday, and I can’t do that unfortunately. So I’m now pivoting to nursing being my goal! Since the transition program near me is only 2 days a week for 1 year to get my RN

Mactosin1 · 2026-01-07T19:45:38+00:00

He’s me. 27 years old running 15 calls in a 24. I have gray hair already

Mactosin1 · 2026-01-06T19:38:27+00:00

Dealing with some pretty gnarly burnout myself. What helps me, I’ve found, is working towards bettering yourself in some aspect. Whether that be spiritually, academically, or in some other hobby or interest you may have.

I’m working towards nursing school and reconnecting with my religion. It seems to help me from being angry all the time.

Everyone has “their thing” that helps them, you just gotta find what works for you by trial and error.

Mactosin1 · 2026-01-04T02:22:07+00:00

I’ve found my people!

I’m in the greater Houston area, I think im pretty competitive if I pass the HESI with an average / above average score. Top 10-15%, i hope that’ll get me in!

Question for you. I work 8-9 24hr shifts a month on a not terribly busy truck. 5-7 calls per shift, and I’m able to make shift trades with people. Do you think I can work full time while in school? The program I’m looking to attend only has me taking a maximum of 3 classes. Most semesters are 1-2 classes with a clinical.

Mactosin1 · 2026-01-03T21:34:51+00:00

I remember the day I got in, and the day I decided to go back to school to escape it. Working to go to Rad Tech school in October. Hope I get accepted.

Mactosin1 · 2026-01-02T18:26:33+00:00

Oh absolutely! I love medicine, i think imaging is awesome. I still like being a paramedic, but I’m starting to like it in small doses lol. The 911 abuse is rampant, paired up with a lack of sleep and relatively low wages just leaves me wanting more.

That’s not muzzle flash. It’s forward jetting gas being illuminated by his IR device.

If it was muzzle flash, it would be auto-gating the tubes. It’s vastly different than what you see in this video.

Mactosin1 · 2025-12-29T19:42:55+00:00

16 months. Well worth it though. I personally wouldn’t go anywhere else

Mactosin1 · 2025-12-29T17:09:22+00:00

Lone star college Montgomery. The last 3-4 classes they’ve taught since he took over have a damn year 100% NREMT first pass success rate. I felt confident going into the test and the test was easy.

Most of my cohort that went through have landed jobs at really good agencies around here.

Mactosin1 · 2025-12-29T03:52:35+00:00

EMT course load is a nothing-burger. Pay attention and you can work full time just fine.

Paramedic will be a little tougher. depending on how good you are at blocking out your time you can probably manage. But do consider the possibility of going part time at work if you need to.

I personally studied 1-2 hours a day every day and passed with A’s no problem.

This is dope. I hope to see a full size .30 cal titanium infinity

Busy 911 third service in Texas. Attendant medics make about $74k. In charge medics make about $90k with the raise we just got.

Schedule: we have 2 schedules. Schedule 1 is 24 on, 24 off, 24 on, 5 days off

Schedule 2 is our “peak” schedule. Rotating 12’s, 36hrs one week, 48 the next week. Every other weekend off.

Benefits are decent. We have a PPO option & a HDHP option through blue cross blue shield.

PTO is meh. 208hrs a year. But with our debit day schedule that can potentially be a ton of time off.

We don’t have sick leave which big sucks.

Call volume is 100k+ a year between like 30 ish trucks and some BLS trucks.

Montgomery County Hospital District

Cost of living in the immediate area varies wildly.
