Re: ny boat show/ filthy fountains
I will post no more piks...only did it because it was it was questioned that people in my profession would slack on holidays, its hard to understand without being in this profession what an incredible insult that was...anyone I have ever worked with would risk there own life to save another without a second thought, 24/7-365 and most have

Re: ny boat show/ filthy fountains
being an EMT and retired firefighter, I am going to do my aboslute BEST to not only keep you alive, but to treat you as if you were a member of my own family regardless of what day of the year it is, and yes..I worked easter, memorial day, labor day, thanksgiving AND christmas last year. not to mention we work for basically fast food wages, on average 8~15 bucks an hour...remember that when you call 911 at 3 am. I couldnt afford to put gas in most of the boats here..but when someone you love is sick, injured or dying..I will be there regardless of whether its a holiday or 3am..so please leave us out of your pissing matches about clean boats. I would love to have something besides a 30 year old boat that does 45 at best...but saving lives is what I do for a living and its all I can afford...Im not trying to sound like an A..hole, but it's a job I love..but to compare me to someone who cant squirt a bottle of simple green and wipe a boat down. how many of you have to deal with this?? or try to sleep at nite after telling a mother her sons dead..and theres nothing you can do..
no those are not rotten.com piks..I was on scene for each one.

I respect you for the job you do. And I appreciate the job you do.
When you start complaining about your wage - or compare it to the gas money that some Members here spend that simply is proving my point.
Unfortunatley for me, I probably don't make much more than you - but I don't b!tch about it.
You have a job.
You don't have a career, a passion, something you REALLY care about in your work.
You have a job.
You do it for a paycheck. Nothing more nothing less.
When I mentioned people of your profession, I meant it out of respect - to always be professional.
What a disappointment.
And, the attached photo's were in very poor taste - in my opinion.

I didn't think the photo's would show back in my quote. Must be the new upgrade.
If one of the mod's can remove the photo's from my post it would be appreciated.
I didn't think they were necessary in the original post.

I think you also missed the point of my comment - maybe 180 degrees, but missed nonetheless.
