Where were you an EMT ?
And did you have to wear a bullet proof vest ?
Guy who is driving one my plow trucks this year used to be in Boston (Dorchester) and I never imagined an EMT having to wear one to help people with health problems or possible dying till he told me some stories, thats crazy !
And as for the welfare topic, gotta love the Gimme Girls !!!
