Ha. Yes. Both lines. I dont know if youre referring to my EMT career or my business that I run. Both have people I dont like. For example, you are walking through walmart and see a very large woman. 350lbs. You immediately think "Ohh.. my back.. please dont fall."

Ever do something stupid to a CO in the military?

I havent seen too much bad stuff. But I have seen some stuff I know most "normal" people couldnt handle. And I say "normal" because EMTs are not normal. We arent gods or above other people, we are just different. It takes a special kind of person, its hard to explain. Its an unusual job and a "normal" person couldnt do it. But likewise, I couldnt do a "normal" persons job. I dont think I could ever answer phones, or sit in an office, or have a 9-5 job. Its just not me. (Thats not supposed to sound like "im better" cause I'm not. its just hard to explain)

If you didnt have to work, would you?
