Default woho!!!

as some of you have noticed the past few weeks ive been kinda scarce to see on this site or any other sites for that matter...

well the reason being i was taking my final test for my emt b liscence!!!
i already got my first responder about 5 months ago!
only 2 more certifications to get before i can go on a ambulance (well technically i can go on now with a emt-b but id have to take a paycut to do it.. (not doing it for the money but i do have bills to pay)

well anyway.. im not scanning in my certificate as its got personal information on it that i dont really want displayed.. i will do it after i fire up photoshop

but i did get my patches for uniforms.. (in mo im assuming that the registar office is the one that hands out your qualification patches)

well anyway story of me.. i thought it was cool and kinda exited

funny thing is.. you have to have a 95 on the test to pass. theres 20 extra credit points. i got a 119 on the test.. i missed a trick question...
the question is after recieveing a call and your vehicle is parked what is the first thing you do?

well i responded with fasten seat belt and turn on emergency equipment and put in gear..

correct answer was supposed to be get in and turn vehicle on... they didnt say you werent in the vehicle.. FAWKERS!!

Congrats Mobs. That is quite an accomplishment. Makes all the hours you put in worth it. I've been an EMT-D, in PA, for quite some time. No pay though. All volunteer.
Good luck with the rest of your qualifying.
