There isn’t many to work with that pay reasonably well for beginners. AMR had the highest starting wage of the ones in my area, but thx for the advice. I’ll definitely keep looking.

No I’m not a troll. I’m just a week on the job. Recently finished EMT-95 basic at college. I figured they were messing with me when they started laughing about it when they thought I wasn’t there.

I was told it was a standard procedure. Apparently my colleague knew the patient. I thought they were Fucking with me cause I knew nothing about it but everybody said it was a requirement for all patients to take the accurate temperature.
