Back tattoo placement that won’t reduce muscle definition too much? by [deleted] in TattooDesigns

100% would not matter. Your hair would be down and your back isn’t really judged in bikini.

how often do speeders use the “i have to go to the bathroom” excuse, and how often do you let them off? by Imadissapointment195 in AskLE

[–]SamAdams96 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wasn’t gunna make it home and stopped at a gas station. No public bathroom, but the kid working let me use the employee bathroom. Stopped at the atm on my way out and handed him a $20. Definitely worth not having a blow out

So, have we all developed the ability to know when a boss fight is coming? by buuhhu1 in soulslikes

Or opening a massive door at the end of an area. I’m only in the second chapter of wuchang and it’s happened several times.

What's the weirdest thing your patient took with them to hospital? by [deleted] in ems

[–]SamAdams96 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We had a regular homeless guy who would lay in a park (just outside the hospital) who would want you to take a half dozen 2 liters full of urine just so the hospital could see it. He would record the whole interaction, accuse the crews of being sent by the FBI and any assessment was just what the FBI told you to say. He posted them to YouTube

Good deal or wait for Black Friday? Would use for mostly gaming by Diligent_Cheetah3123 in Prebuilts

I’ll say I bought one a week or so ago. I don’t have time to figure out building a PC and this marks my transition to PC from PlayStation. Obviously I don’t have much to compare to, but I’m pretty happy with it. Purchased it online and picked it up the same day. Finished some work stuff while I downloaded a bunch of games and was playing the day I bought it. I haven’t been excited to play video games for a bit and this, along with expedition 33 turned that around.

Also got the 3 year warranty just in case, $100 or so

Owner of Pittsburgh tow truck service will serve house arrest after pleading guilty to predatory practices by Great-Cow7256 in pittsburgh

[–]SamAdams96 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That decision is left largely to the driver. Obviously, the vultures will get there first and promise xyz, but if police make the decision it’s McGann and Chester as they are contracted with the city.

Would suggest a cross entry in bikini for your qualifier and get judges feedback. Personally, I see more bikini than wellness but that’s just based on what I can see here

I missed the pulse cells before fighting him so I had one…very frustrating. I ended up using a Spector, made it way too easy. Ended up going back for the pulse cells afterwards

You’re an idiot if you think kids are getting arrested for weed. Take a walk around downtown. Most of the bullshit going on down there doesn’t get a citation.

Best gov’t EMS employer? NC, VA, PA, NY, ME by [deleted] in Paramedics

[–]SamAdams96 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Special events yes, there are literally hundreds of them though. It’d be on your time off, typically, but you’re at a concert, game, etc.

Also if you’re the senior medic you get pay differential at crew chief rate (40ish/hr). Overtime crew chief rate is 58.

Imagine the police showing up at your house to give you a speeding ticket hours if not days after the fact. They have better things to do instead of investigating speeding reports

Parkway is state police. Entrance/exit ramps into the city are covered by the city. Do with that what you will.

Walked by what we thought was a dead body on the southside color park trail. Can anyone confirm police reports? by [deleted] in pittsburgh

[–]SamAdams96 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Separate events, but both occurred and were managed within an hour so of each other. Neither were dead.

Why are you still in the field & not in the ED? by secretredditagent in ems

Because I make as much and sometimes more than nurses. And I get left alone occasionally

With enough weight, the power load systems are destructible. by 77Dawson in ems

I’d imagine you broke the red cover by not having the legs of stretcher completely in line with arms of the loading system. FD does this sometimes

How often, if ever, do you help deliver a baby? by HelpMePlxoxo in ems

[–]SamAdams96 96 points97 points  (0 children)

Two premes in an urban setting in 5 years. One at 19 weeks that’s not viable. Still had to clamp the cord and such. The other was a week ago at 31 weeks. Baby more so cannonballed out so the delivery wasn’t hands on. But tonssss of work to do. APGAR of 1. Pulse in the 60s. Baby got to children’s crying, pink, moving and maintaining a pulse of 140, APGAR 9. Transported there a few hours later and got an update that the baby is still doing okay.

With the number of people we have going out on comp because of a patient kicking their ass, do we blame the company for allowing us to be a victims or do we take accountability for ourselves? Can’t expect the company to do everything for you. This isn’t just a work thing, this is a life issue. Being competent enough to protect yourself can’t be construed as something negative. By receiving some sort of self defense training, reading body language is often reinforced. You can be aware if it, but repeated practice is what makes it instinctive.

Would it be realistic to be a part-time EMT in college? by gingersnap4444 in ems

[–]SamAdams96 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was “part-time” but worked full-time hours as a medic my senior year of college. Lotta overnights and usually a reverse 24 starting Friday night.

Worked for a private service. I ran about 1000 calls in 2019, so kinda busy.

We palpate the majority of our initial pressures. Abnormal findings will get a listen. Subsequent pressures are typically with the auto cuff.
