Can we all just agree that none of us thinks we
are paid fairly for our commitment?
Thanks

THE FIRST LAW OF AMBULANCE DRIVING: No matter how fast you drive the
Ambulance when responding to a call, it will never be fast enough, unless you
pass a Police Cruiser, at which point it will be entirely too fast.

My
qualifications are, Manuel, that I am an elected State Fire Commissioner
running a Fire/EMS first response team that averages over 20 calls per day and
is responsible for 11 sq. miles of primary service turf and 50,000
residents. I have served in this capacity for 10 years. So,
yes, I do think I am quite qualified to speak my piece here. I feel EMS
pilot issues should be a part of this network and that you as a crew member
should be more supportive instead of critical of the current pay issues.
I'm very sure that if it were about your position that you too would expect
the rest of us to be more sympathetic.
So, you see, dear soul, the EMS
aviation industry is only secondary to my commitment.... Don't
slobber on yourself about what it's like to be on the street and a committed
professional. Your preaching to the choir here.
