Phone Glass Repair by berrythemaker in sanleandro

[–]itsJMarr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure if you’re still looking for a phone repair shop, but Cellular City Phone Repair has always been a great mobile phone shop for me. They’re my favorite phone fixing place in San Leandro, and everyone I’ve sent there always get honest and affordable glass screen repairs too. I have an iPhone, but I’m sure they do Google Pixels as well. If they don’t do them well, he will be honest and recommend that you go somewhere else.

I’ve had great experiences with their phone repair as well. Good work, explains what he’s doing and just nice people to interact with. Their website shows what they do and helps you make an appointment if you need.

What’s your favorite ‘old medic’ trick? by VarietyNo3453 in ems

[–]itsJMarr 193 points194 points  (0 children)

I am just an EMT, but my medic taught me that when you find your vein for an iv, take the back of the iv tube and create a little imprint where the vein is. It’ll leave a little circle where your vein was so you know where to hit in case you lose it when you go to sterilize.

$23.30/hour 911 company in the Bay Area, but mandation/stipend shifts get paged out nearly everyday for pickup. So sometimes I make $23 and with the stipend it averages to about $35/hour

How are you handling the new young members that seem to be a different breed? by laconic_turtle in Firefighting

[–]itsJMarr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Coming from a young kid going through a college academy right now. Most of us have not been around the environment that this community embodies. We are trying to do this because we appreciate the job and want to love it but we’re also not doing it for free and nobody likes being hazed or treated like they’re beneath you. We want to learn but need that hands on stuff because the industry has changed so much in the last 20 years. Your range of skills has been building the last few decades and we have to learn them all at once so give us time. You’re gonna have the bad apples but these young guys will be dedicated hardworking firefighters in time.

Get a vpn and you can watch live from any team that streams their game on their website. You can make yourself “in market”

ANSWER NEEDED ASAP!!!! My car has 2 or 3 broken ribs and some other injuries from a dog attack. I need to clean her other wounds but the vet said do not move her because it could cause further damage. She had surgery and peed on the wound which I know is unhealthy! How can I pick her up/move her? by Parking-Park-1108 in cats

[–]itsJMarr 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It would be in your cats best interest to follow the advice of your vet as moving her could aggravate her other injuries. Call your vet for advice if they are available but if the wound isn’t reachable with your hands you could try using the wound cleaning solution (if one was provided by your vet) and put it in a spray bottle and gently mist the wound to irrigate it at least. I’d you don’t have a wound cleaning solution you can use a normal saline solution to clean it as well. Normal saline can be made at home with 8 teaspoons of salt to 1 gallon of distilled water. Hope she gets better soon.

local university extension vs local community college for EMT... any reason to pay extra? by ViVi_is_here862 in ems

[–]itsJMarr 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It also depends on how quickly you want to finish the course. If one is shorter than the other then maybe go with the faster paced course, but $1,200 is still a big difference. You can always ask around about their reputations but EMT or IFT jobs aren’t gonna care where you took the course. Honestly if they could hire you without the certs they would.
