Paramedics make that much? That is pretty good!*The_West* said:huh? the careers advisor never told me about that when they came round in high school! im a noob paramedic.
what do you do, if you dont mind me asking? im guessing EF cant pay all your wages, surely?needtogetaas said:I love my job.
*The_West* said:we do in good old blighty. i think the actual exchange rate is closer to $1.00=£0.62 so it is probably a bit less than $50,000. i did the 4 year combined course in paramedical science and trauma nursing, so i can add another few grand on it if i can be arsed to do a few shifts as a nurse in a+e.
PICK3 said:Yeah ... fuck that.
This is the internet ... you make a bit more than $50k for being a newbie paramedic![]()

sometimes. we have a job at the shedd aquarium starting in oct. right now we are in downers grove building some condo/retail buildings. part of its over 60ft tall. i'm the lucky guy who gets to build all the scaffolding up the side of teh building.Smurfy said:do you work in downtown chicago?

i don't mind but it gets a little tough when you are on a scaffold that is rocking like a boat and your building it up more and walking 16ft planks down it. also also working on the edge of it. but it does get better aftr you tie it in to the wall for support. the last kid they sent out to help almost had a nervous breakdown within 10 minutes of being up there. i feel safer working on the stuff i build rather than walking onto someone else's nightmare.velvett said:God I love heights
