You might be in the NYC*EMS System if........

[Richard B the EMT]

You purposely listen to PD radios and UCA yourself to the atom where the good job is going to be dispatched.

You know what the reference "atom" means.

You have a partner who deplores partners who listen for jobs on PD frequencies.

You have a portable DVD player, and bring a substantial DVD library along with you to view between calls. Invariably, those tours either have no calls, or the mother of all MCI calls, or that's the tour when the boro chief decides to pay a visit to the street corner you're supposed to be at, except you're 2 blocks away where it's darker, so you can see the screen better.

You know D----- (Bay Ridge and Bensonhurst Brooklyn).

You took D----, paid for his ticket, brought him to the EMS Party, dropped him back off, and then picked him up shortly thereafter because he called 911.

You have to push through FDNY and NYPD ESU fighting over a pin job just to get to the patient.

You know what "facilitate" means.

You give up a job because either you or your partner is facilitating.
