That whhhzingggg sound you just heard; and the pair of pants you smell being changed;... that was me!!
The fat, old-guy has dodged a MISSLE!!
I just now recieved two days "unpaid vacation" for my tardies(late to work, not late to class)...... But my ass is STILL swimming upstream toward some medic numbers!!
For some reason; Command seems to feel that I'm salvageable.... Read More
Hey Fuzzy! You still alive? All work and no play.......well, all work and no play makes fuzzy a good and dedicated student but it makes his SG friends miss him a little. How's it going?

I totally admire your ability to accept responsibility and own up to the accountability part of all this. It's very grown up and it's a very responsible attitude to have, but DOOOOOOD!!!!!!! With the type of reputation you've earned and the skills you obviously possess, there's got to be some way for "conditional status" or some sort of probationary thing. I profess total ignorance to the system under which you guys work, but why would someone with an obvious love of the job and outstanding capabilities be so quickly dismissed for "tardies" that are related to a situation that is totally temporary (e.g., car trouble). What's your recourse for this?
aaaaack!
Keep me posted and I"ll keep my fingers crossed, too.
Outta the classroom part, and just finishing up my last 72 hrs of clinicals. Then I can start my 500 hrs of ride time.

Next Friday is my last day of medic class!! One last test to take over the last few chapters of the book. Skill sheets all get checked off, so ride time can start.

I worked in an ER for abt 3 yrs...
I hate the idea of Hilary and Obama together. I think either of them has to get an established white male to run with them. richardson and edwards are the only 2 running who have any credibility, but could bloomberg go with Obama possibly??? wouldn't that ROCK~! i think so
