what is the starting pay?

Well, you will have to do the math. Understand that we work a 48 hour work week, not 56, with everything over 40 is OT. This leaves a LOT of time off for fun, aOT, or school, or sleep, or your significant other.

For a medic: It is basically about 40K a year. The benifits package (health insurance, etc) is about 19K a year worth of county contributions, and its the same retirement (State Pension) as the FD and PD. This is before any adjustment for experiance (up to 20%) and before the first additional shift (over your normal schedual) is worked.
