Hah, great idea! I like the collaboration concept.

Thank you for the kind words my friend and for being such a loyal follower of my content and commented on my posts. It really does mean a lot. One of my biggest complaints about my job is that the only feedback I ever get is negative, and no one ever stops to say “you’re doing well.” I’ve made it through 3 rounds of layoffs so I know I’m at least somewhat competent at my job! It would be nice to hear it.

So great to be on a platform with so much positivity and encouragement. You have honesty been one of the parts of what keeps me here and active, especially early on, so thank you for that my friend.

you are so welcome @dollarsandsense..you are very unique in your style of writing and you deserve any kind words, you've earned them because this isn't easy especially when you don't know what to write about.

but I think you can write about anything that comes to mind or strikes yourself as being interesting because by the time you get into it and add your humor to it..it turns out great! lol.

in your real world job though..you really never hear any "great job" or any type of encouragement or gratefulness for what you guys do?
that surprises me, I thought firefighters and all first responders were held in pretty high regard.

Oh I don’t do that full time, I just do that as a volunteer for about 30 hours a month. My full time job is far less interesting or respected, hah!

what?? I thought you were an EMT fulltime. what is your fulltime job then?

Nope. Customer service at a software company.

two jobs! you must be rolling in the money dude! lol.
well sir...that job sounds dreadful. does it suck?

Hah I wish! The volunteering doesn’t pay anything, so that’s one less paycheck.

My day job isn’t so terrible - it pays enough on its own to where my wife doesn’t have to work. I feel blessed to have it, though some days I do wish I had picked a different field.

well sir, I thought EMTs were well paid, are you all volunteers?
it seems like that job there, the customer service rep job would provide alot of post material with the way people act and such, no?

Some EMTs are paid, some are volunteers. It’s kind of the same as firefighters.

I WOULD have some funny stories I’m sure if our customers were the general public. Instead, we sell business software to businesses, so all of the customers I deal with are all corporate types.
