Do you guys feel that EMS deserves to be on that list?

[CTXMEDIC]

yeah, but at number 200 the way things are going...

I think it is ranked apprpriately, especially if you are talking about EMTBs. Everyone that chooses EMS as a career should strive to make it to Paramedic. This is true of any occupation that has an "entry level". No one should stay at the level of FF1, CNA, Patrolman, or frycook. If you do, you limit your earning potential and job satisfaction.

amen crotchity, I never understand the life long EMT-B or career EMT-B, ie one of my partners who has been an EMT for 26 yrs and never attempted ALS education..
