tcripp Posted February 21, 2012 Posted February 21, 2012 While everyone is looking at how to get in to the 911 EMS realm, I am making a move in to a clinical setting. Can't wait to see what the new position will provide, but it is a paramedic position in an imaging clinic. Now, I am already missing the tones and the radio traffic...but what I'm not missing is the late night toe pain calls. Additionally, I'm excited that I will have holidays and Sunday's off...will be making more per hour with fewer overtime hours...and sleeping in my own bed seven nights a week. 1
EMTDenny Posted February 21, 2012 Posted February 21, 2012 Awesome! I hope everything works out for you!
DwayneEMTP Posted February 21, 2012 Posted February 21, 2012 Awesome! I hope everything works out for you! (Psssst. When she says, 'imaging', that's code for 'strip club.') We wish you all the best Toni, in your new 'imaging' endeavors! (Truly am excited to hear how it goes...The ()? That's me whispering...see? Clever, right?) Dwayne
systemet Posted February 21, 2012 Posted February 21, 2012 Additionally, I'm excited that I will have holidays and Sunday's off...will be making more per hour with fewer overtime hours...and sleeping in my own bed seven nights a week. I can say from experience, that this is absolutely fantastic. Not having to be continuously fighting your circadian rhythms and being in sync with the rest of the world is incredible.
tcripp Posted February 21, 2012 Author Posted February 21, 2012 Danny - thanks! Systemet - very much appreciate your sentiment and actually have enjoyed getting back to a normal sleep cycle. Dwayne - you are just jealous because I will have my own pole whereas most fire services have to share one. Ewww! (Thanks, sir! And, yes, you are very clever. I even understood without the explanation. I'm bright like that. )
JakeEMTP Posted February 21, 2012 Posted February 21, 2012 Congrats Toni! I've been thinking about doing the same thing. Currently, I'm working critical care but it's night shift. I'm getting to old for that though. Steady days would be the bomb as I would still be on the truck, but home @ night, and sleep in my own bed even!. I wish you only the best in your new position!
Kaisu Posted February 22, 2012 Posted February 22, 2012 good for you Toni! I wish you every success and happiness. 1
DFIB Posted February 22, 2012 Posted February 22, 2012 Good job Toni. It is interesting to see the job opportunities for medics. I am sure you will be missed in EMS. 1
chbare Posted February 22, 2012 Posted February 22, 2012 Sounds like a new and interesting opportunity. Best of luck. Come back and make us ashamed of our knowledge of medical imagining. I'm always up for some learning. 2
BAYAMedic Posted February 22, 2012 Posted February 22, 2012 Dwayne - you are just jealous because I will have my own pole whereas most fire services have to share one. Ewww! (Thanks, sir! And, yes, you are very clever. I even understood without the explanation. I'm bright like that. ) I think your just happy he got your name right on the first attempt. Fireman1037 3
