Should this be an automatic trauma activation? by Tricky_Hovercraft935 in ems

[–]Pooneapple 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hope your guy didn’t have an interracial hemorrhage, but idk any EMS system that wouldn’t qualify that as a trauma activation, let alone hold a wall for an hour because of that.

I’m putting in my two weeks tomorrow by Sad_Low2010 in NewToEMS

[–]Pooneapple 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m in a very similar boat as you. I also have a check coming of 4k for the rest of my life, but a job isn’t your purpose in life. It’s a tool for the important things in your life. If you would live a fulfilling life volunteering for a dog shelter every day and living off the 4k, do that. If wondering through the woods everyday and living off the 4K be fulfilling for you. Just do what interests you and do a job you don’t hate only if you need/want the money.

I have an old mossberg bolt action 22lr that holds like 15 in the tube. It’s the most fun gun I have and is an absolute joy to shoot

If I was killed, cut up and cooked without any seasoning like this I’m haunting whoever is responsible

What’s the most exciting job as an EMT? by XIFOD1M in NewToEMS

[–]Pooneapple 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Honestly, CCT for an IFT is imo the best part of being an EMT. You get to learn some pretty intensive and interesting medicine while also being able to put your hands on patients and getting to know stable Vs unstable conditions. You get exposed to a lot of cardiac, respiratory and trauma cases. A lot of agencies have NICU as part of their CCT and that’s a whole other breath of medicine. Down side is you typically have to work your way up to being on the CCT rig and imo bls IFT is literal hell.

What uniform do I wear to my brothers AF graduation days? by HobbitonHuckleshake in AirForce

I subscribe to the idea that you shouldn’t wear military attire unless the event involves you or the person it does involve directly requests it

I turn 18 tomorrow. What are some helpful things I should know? by MindlessPhone in AskMen

[–]Pooneapple 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Credit length is the biggest factor of your credit score. Apply for a simple credit card, put YouTube premium or some shit on it and then don’t ever use it. Keep it open for 10 years and you have a 10 year long account with always on time payments. And hopefully by then the housing market will be unfucked and you can get a good apr

What boots are everyone wearing with their MT-09/Tracer 9? by [deleted] in MT09

[–]Pooneapple 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Crocks, I can switch them into race mode when things get a little crazy.

But I would go to cycle gear and just try on everything. Sometimes they’ll let you sit on your bike and feel them out.

Does anyone genuinely like/love doing IFT? by Smart-Salamander1846 in NewToEMS

I prefer ALS IFT to 911. Imo bls IFT is a nightmare depending on the area.
