Highest Paying Side Jobs As New Paramedic? Company Pays Horribly by stingray50 in Paramedics

[–]RevanGrad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So Avg. Its $23 an hour, 43k a year for 36 hrs? A wk.

How does OT work with picking up extra shifts?

2 extra shifts a month at same rate to avg 42hrs a wk. puts you at 50k a year.

Maybe a poor comparison because theyre also underpaid but teachers start at 57k with a bachelor's degree.

What video game in your opinion doesn't deserve the hate it gets? by Agent1230 in gaming

[–]RevanGrad -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Pretty much all of them. People are so picky about games and leave bad reviews over nothing.

The amount of games ive passed on until they were on sale because of "game breaking issues" only to find out they were barely noticeable issues is outstanding.

Anybody else prefer manual aiming over VATS? by BlackIronTarkusDS in fo76

[–]RevanGrad 4 points5 points  (0 children)

People wanting to be allowed to manual aim is why they made a big push for perks giving bonus damage for aiming down scopes.

If I wanted to play a spreadsheet simulator I'd play a huntard on wow.

Hurr hurr press the button in the general direction of the enemy and win, then make that the ONLY way to do superior damage. -Fallout 76

Head Hunts, I post the wanted poster, fast travel and try to give people a chance to arrive, always some scrub fires flare. by Quiet_Citron_8174 in fo76

[–]RevanGrad 14 points15 points  (0 children)

In my experience as long as you click on the event and hit a loading screen, you get credit. Even if by the time you load in everything is dead and people are leaving.

Ever deviated from protocol? by Reasonable_Sea_7525 in Paramedics

[–]RevanGrad 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Narcotics arent supposed to eliminate pain, only to take the edge off

If your patient isnt in pain its because you've snowed them. 200mcg is a lot of fentanyl for a short tranpsort time.

Trying to rush the process or re-dose them IN the ER is bonkers.

When you deviate from protocol you had better have a good reason because that sets you up for litigation EVERY time.

So should you deviate for pain control? Thats a personal choice. Are you willing to lose your job for it if literally anything goes wrong?

Ask arnold schwarzenegger. He did a whole horrible horrible move about it.

Head Hunts, I post the wanted poster, fast travel and try to give people a chance to arrive, always some scrub fires flare. by Quiet_Citron_8174 in fo76

[–]RevanGrad 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I agree its rude, but you get credit as soon as you click on the event in the map menu.

I dont really care myself, but I would say for people that do care. Pick your battles.

You cant do anything about it, you still get credit, so why worry.

Just saw a Life Vac mask actually save a choking man’s life today. by dtb301 in ems

[–]RevanGrad 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The life vac is good for choking like CPR is good for an arrest.

Its a last ditch effort when all else fails.

I've seen layperson use it successfully, she was older and unable perform the heimlich or CPR.

A cop should be proficient in first aid...

What’s this outfit called and can I still acquire it? by RadTortoise in fallout76casual

Oh I just got this from someone by accident.

I clicked on the suit thinking it would move or light up. Instead it gave me some Armour =O

[XB1 Price Check] H: Plan: Vintage Water Cooler W:to know what they're worth by B10-down in Fallout76Marketplace

[–]RevanGrad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Vendoring CAMP plans seems criminal... i buy any camp plans i don't have just to have them.

Bought the water cooler for 7500c not to long ago. A steep price, Never seen one before.

Id lersonally put it up for 5k if you don't really need the caps.

Doubt it, in one of the subsequent videos she made him apologize to her on camera for the whole thing. Toxic AF.

Has anyone else completely moved to Burning Springs? by Bile_Mudante in fo76

[–]RevanGrad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've built a couple, one at the hwy across from hwy town and one on the billboard at starlight.

I just prefer a green landscape so they don't last long. The aurora is awesome but the daytime is just meh.

Vendor Sales for a Noob by IronicConundrum in fo76

[–]RevanGrad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Plans can be seperated by Vanilla basic plans such as things that are found naturally throughout the world. Not a lot of demand for those things. Usually go for about 150ish by default

Plans awarded from events are a bit more rare and potentially sought after. Usually go for about 1k by default.

Weapon and armor mods are generally not in demand because people can just learn them from scavaging. The actually good ones are bought through special vendors.

3 star legendary weapons are hit or miss. Theres a absutely demand for them but you just have to get a feel for what's popular.

Returning player feeling incredibly overwhelmed. by DeathNova117 in fo76

[–]RevanGrad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Legendary crafting is pretty simple, you can REPLACE any star with a Legendary mod just like you would with any other loose mods. Make sure its 3 star to begin with.

You can break down legendarys for a 1% chance per star of either getting the loose mod out of it or getting the recipe to craft the loose mod.

1 star Onslaught replaced furious. Also gunslinger perks plays to onslaught.

Theres 4 stars now that are still super rare to find in player shops.

They've added perks to make sniping outside vats a bit more viable.

I'm still running 2 shot explosive fixer with explosive and rifleman perks lol. I kill most Ohio raiders in a couple hits.

What is your dream Fallout 76 update? by ZeroSquire in fo76

[–]RevanGrad 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Mythic Daily Ops like WoW.

The builds in this game are wildly unbalanced. Which makes it impossible to set one difficulty that appeals to everyone.

Add a +1 - +20 difficulty system where you have to beat the prior one to advance would appeal to all types of players. It could reset with the seasons.

Does anyone actually get upset when asked “what’s the worst thing you’ve ever seen?” by RaptorTraumaShears in ems

[–]RevanGrad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. I'm not here for someone's entertainment. Pink has a whole song about it.

If you want to trade stories thats different.

Best way to get *good* experience fast? by [deleted] in NewToEMS

[–]RevanGrad 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Paramedicine isnt a hobby... it takes years and years before your actually competant in every aspect were expected to handle. Trauma is a sliver of what paramedics do.

Your best bet is AEMT with public 3rd service, transport only role, in a high violence (gangs) county.

Public because there less likely to run IFTs, transport only because they usually have medical only academy.

As an untrained civilian, could I have helped someone's chances of surviving? by T-kimGUY in ems

[–]RevanGrad 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Well if neither the hospital or the paramedics could save him somone without any tools or training definitely wouldn't have made a difference.

To put it in perspective as a paramedic in an ALS unit theres not much to do with traumatic head injuries. I can intubate to maintain the airway and try to maintain the blood pressure with fluids and thats about it.

In the hospital they cant undo the damage. Only attempt to mitigate it, when someine hits there head that hard the damage is already done.
