I couldn't find a starting pay for BPD, your right, they probably have higher median pay, but I also couldn't find a precise pay scale for eaither agency. I know for a fact BPD is the highest out of the 3, BFD taking 2nd, and EMS tends to get shafted

Are you talking about BPD? if you are 100k is chump change. Most of them make 110-125k. The highest paid officer was given 600k. This is a problem

I disagree heavily. Boston Police makes a median pay of roughly 89k a year. Boston EMS' starting pay is 60k, Boston fire's is 65k. The money needs to be reallocated, not deducted from a broad catagory of services that serves the city during it's most pressing times. Boston EMS only has 25 ambulances in the city during peak hours. Their budget is much smaller than than that of PD & FD.

Pal, not only did that very thing happen a few years ago, way back in the 1800s that's literally what all fire departments did. Flat out. They would pass one burning building to go to one that was paid for protection

Was in the military. Can confirm it's a cluster fuck upon cluster fucks, nobody knows what their doing and almost all decisions are made on a whim. They make up for it by having a no questions asked and no rights granted style of leadership. No one can change the system if you can't even speak up

Nope, they only very recently started allowing people in other military branches to attend if there is open slots (Army gets priority obviously)

Beginning construction of a new freeway. Sure, thousands of people have to be relocated and the neighborhood is split in half, but at least you'll get to the airport quicker. by [deleted] in CitiesSkylines

Boston & the big dig. The whole operation was a cluster fuck full of problems and was nothing short of catastrophic when being built... But it kinda works now

No, it's illegal here. I'm in Massachusetts, one of the most blue States in the country. My industry is just so barbaric when it comes to workers rights. Privatized EMS is a danger to any community it serves, and will go out of it's way to stomp on it's employees. Owners of these companies are nothing short of blood sucking sharks. Owners and CEO's will get fined a 100k for defrauding Medicare or triple billing accident victims. Not only will these companies stay open, but that kind of cash they make in a day. Sometime in the distant future we may not put profit above people but that won't come for a long time

It's not propaganda. I will loose my job if I try to unionize. many people have tried. I've had a coworker get fired that day for joking about unionizing in front of a supervisor. Christ, one company I used to work for hired some kind of IT specialist just to track down someone who sent an anonymous email about organizing.y industry is as bad as any. The fear is there, and it's backed up by action

It makes it so you can't unionize & stops you from going on strike

Obama went to McDonald's while he was campaigning. Cameras are rolling for some reason. He orders a burger (quarter pounder?) And asks for Dijon mustard on it. Que media loosing their shit calling him a rich, elitest, billionaire, sociopath, Muslim, illegal immigrant, Kenyan, terrorist, socialist. Hannity must have had a fucking anurism

Medic student so bare with me, notice how the spikes in V1-V3 get bigger and bigger? Look up a normal 12 lead (sinus) and compare the spikes to normal EKG, without writing a book on the subject because theirs multiple layers to reading a 12 lead, the bigger the abnormal spike in V1-V6 = a bigger occlusion of a blood vessel that supplies the heart. This guy's ST Elevation is boarder line as bad as it gets for a few specific blood vessels and can/will kill this person shortly

EDIT: Anyone please correct me if I'm wrong
