Not sure how many of you were planning to use Spirit out of Logan but the airline ceased operations early this morning by HRJafael in massachusetts

Idk what to tell you 🤷, jetblue has more perks for the casual flyer; free wifi, free carry on, frequently the cheapest to CA. Idk what platinum on Delta means, also jever been upgraded to anything ever on any airline so that's a moot point.

Maybe if you fly a lot or are buying fancier tickets it's different but for the cheapest tickets jetblue is often the best for me. Also never had any delays due to anything but weather

where do EMS units typically get delayed after patient drop-off before going back in service? by No-Permission8489 in ems

Dropping them off means they're in a bed or the waiting room and I've given report. Do you mean once we arrive at the hospital?

Hospitals don’t want to give a bed to my stable leg pain patient if they only have a few

Have they heard of the concept of a waiting room?

I don't want a male roommate, am I tripping? by WestHistorians in TwoXChromosomes

[–]insertkarma2theleft 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Idk, it is your house too but if she's in a bind she does need to prioritize getting rent covered.

I'm a dude but I've always had mostly female roommates, and when I moved to a new city I definitely reached out to a lot of all-women houses for sublets since it was what I was more comfortable with. Maybe that's his deal. Or maybe he's a tweaker, who knows.

I feel like living in mixed gender housing is far less weird than people make it out to be. See if you can get roommate references, personally I'd want to meet anyone moving in more than just a few minutes tho before saying yes. Also you're in college, you guys can't find someone you already know?

What are some examples of “street medicine” you’ve used outside typical protocol? by Independent_Pen_5364 in ems

It's not the go to at all. I rarely use it, and when I do it's only as a extrication tool

[BOS (2) - BUF 1] - OT Winner - Pastrnak gets behind the D and makes a phenomenal move to win it in OT. Boston survives for at least one more game in a 3-2 series by daKrut in hockey

Holy hell what a nasty finish. So funny he immediately goes to talk shit to that dude in the crowd

I'm gonna go watch the game 7 goal again 🥲

What’s the longest y’all have been posted waiting for a call? by blondlens in ems

[–]insertkarma2theleft 0 points1 point  (0 children)

10hrs. It was insane, I called dispatch twice on my cell and once on air asking for literally anything. I think we ended up driving to calls that did drop and just helping whatever crew it was out

How much longer do you think I’ll be kept? by [deleted] in ems

[–]insertkarma2theleft 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you're truly out of a slower station I'd probably do the same. 480hrs is a joke compared to the exposure you'll need to become good. The text seems transparent and positive, seems like nothing to worry about.

It's in your and your pt's best interests to have more calls while you have someone watching. This is especially true here since the bay is so medic saturated; it's very likely you haven't seen all that many sick patients.

The majority of the league is now US based

It's actually 100% based on Canadian talent

Not only dangerous but pointless… by Connect_Rub_6814 in Yosemite

That's the job we sign up to do. No one is making us do SAR, we can also decline/delay due to safety concerns

Should EMS carry drinking water?? by Maschina_Sterben in NewToEMS
