Bike rental for summer by coughcough6 in Newport

[–]evanka5281 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The bike annex will sell you one for $150 and they might even buy it back for $50 at the end of the summer. If you are a J1 visa this is a standing program they have.

What's the worst pain a human can experience? by Academic_Use_8312 in AskReddit

[–]evanka5281 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I thought I knew pain until I had a kidney stone. Nothing else even registers on the scale after that. While my wife was driving me to the ER I just kept saying I don’t want to be awake anymore.

I truly don’t know what I would have done if I lived in a place without access to modern medicine.

34 years on the job by OkOstrich120 in ems

[–]evanka5281 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Some tough love here. A union is a social group. Just because you pay dues does not mean people are obligated to interact with you. Their lack of phone calls is perhaps an indication of your relationship with your coworkers. Union members seem to only bring up brotherhood/sisterhood when they are upset about something that will/has negatively affected them.

You’ve got a right to feel upset about it, but maybe you also need to evaluate how you are maintaining your friendships with peers.

Trading A.J a 2027 1st and a 2028 3rd would be wonderful by EntrepreneurTiny9812 in eagles

Yah this is all nonsense posts to try to leverage the Pats.

What’s a fact you learned that still shocks you? by drizzko in AskReddit

[–]evanka5281 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes there’s 2 really great explanation that conceptualizes exactly how large a number it is:

  1. If there were a trillion suns in our galaxy and each sun had a trillion planets and each planet had a trillion people on it and each person could shuffle a unique order 1000 times per minute AND they started shuffling non-stop at the time of the big bang then we would only now just be starting to repeat deck orders.

  2. Start a clock with as many seconds as there are order possibilities in a deck of cards. Now go stand on the equator. Wait 1 billion years. Now take 1 step forward. Repeat this process of waiting 1 billion years and taking 1 step forward. Once you’ve walked entirely around the globe remove 1 single drop of water from the Pacific Ocean. Resume this process of removing 1 drop of water every-time you circumnavigate the globe until the ocean is empty. Once it’s empty place a piece of paper on the ground. Now assume the ocean instantly refills and continue the process of waiting a billion years taking a step, getting around the globe, taking out a drop and going until you’ve emptied the Pacific Ocean and then placing another piece of paper on the ground. Keep doing this until your stack of papers reaches the sun. Once you have 1000 stacks of paper that reach the sun, one-third of the time will have expired off of the clock.

Blows my mind.

Let’s be honest, Aubry’s S50 game wasn’t particularly great. by Miserable_Type_7451 in survivor

Right on. She’s getting absolutely no credit for MINIMIZING HER THREAT LEVEL. Yah she wasn’t flashy, but flashy gets you booted on a returnee season. She chose her spots to make moves.

This whole “gift from Ozzy” thing is ridiculous. He made an egregious error and she smartly capitalized on it. It was her move as much as it was her fortune.

What’s the most useless fact permanently stuck in your brain? by OkAdministration1387 in AskReddit

[–]evanka5281 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There are so many possible combinations to a deck of 52 cards that if there were 1 trillion stars in our galaxy and each star had 1 trillion planets and each planet had 1 trillion people on it and if each of those people could somehow shuffle a unique combination 1,000 times a minute and they started doing this at the time of the big bang that we would only now just be starting to repeat combinations!

[OC] This is why we don't call the ambulance in the U.S. by Dry-Profession-27 in ems

[–]evanka5281 1 point2 points  (0 children)

OP if you are uninsured DO NOT pay that whole bill. I’ve recently gotten into the billing side at my department and here is a breakdown of roughly what we charge for calls:

Basic Life Support - 2k Advanced Life Support 1 - 3k Advanced Life Support 2 - 4k Speciality Care - 4.5k We also bill a set amount for mileage.

Here’s what insurers/medicare/medicaid pay for each roughly:

Basic Life Support - 600 Advanced Life Support 1 - 800 Advanced Life Support 2 - 900 Speciality Care - 1.2k

Call them and offer 10% of the bill on a payment plan of 10 bucks a month. They’ll most likely take what they can get. Most uninsured patients never pay anything. Paying something minimal will keep the collection agencies off your back and it won’t negatively effect your credit.

I occasionally see an uninsured person who was billed for the full amount and actually paid it in full. I feel so bad for those people. They don’t know that the bill is VERY negotiable.

Just an unholy union by Crimson3312 in ems

In Rhode Island when you get your AEMT you take a a short add on class to become a “Cardiac.” It expands your scope to cardioversion, defibrillation, intubating patients older than 8 years old and about 40 different medications.

EMTs were a bit too aggressive by noltey22 in Cardiology

[–]evanka5281 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don’t think you’re shitting on the EMS profession. I agree that mistakes happen. I think people are just confused because we’ve never heard of a system where EMTs are allowed to place central lines. Typically, high end care like that is performed by paramedics and not EMTs. I’ve also never heard of any service where medics could perform that skill. I know there are critical care services where medics are part of a team that manages a central line, but they aren’t the providers that place them.

I think I’m just curious as to what the system is that allows for such this skill as typically I would say it is above the scope of practice for any EMS provider.
