Taxi!

Well it's Thursday and I am coming to the end of a particularly tough week. I mean it wasnt *that* tough really, I mean no one I knew got beheaded, neither did I but still things havent been great in my households. I guess some background is in order, I'm an EMT, what most people would call either an ambulance driver or a paramedic, technically I am neither but whatever. Up until recently I loved my job, sure it's tough at times, but every now and again I get the chance to make a real difference in somebody's life on odd occasions I actually get to save one....but that rarely happens, most of the time I just transport people from hospital to rehab or from home to dialysis...many of these people are only too able to make their own way to places, but instead they either get their insurance company to pay for the ride or more often medicare gets stuck with the bill....and people wonder why there is no prescription drug benefit?
