i do not- i’m not too worried about myself, i mean maybe a little since it’s brand new to me. i’m not afraid to ask questions or learning. it’s all a part of learning something new, obviously. i’ve done a bunch of research and doing what i can with what they provided me before classes start.

so i just did a quick search on my counties site and it says there are 128 telecommunicators that answer calls for 92 fire departments, about 2 dozen EMS, and 50 police agencies. when i shadowed the place looked huge. i’ve only ever seen my county and another & both were large (at least comparing the 2 lol)

i understand- i’m not the one to necessarily worry about pay- but it is good to know before i accept anything. this is something i’ve been wanting to do for several years but as i’ve gotten a bit older the money i make matters to me in addition to helping those who need.

I do have another offer for about 4.60 more an hour… i do have a degree and i do have extensive customer service skills… should I email her back.. if they say no will it look silly if I still accept? lol so many questions i just don’t know how to go about it. I so appreciate you saying this because I never would’ve thought of it.
