  1. Ha no problem.
  2. They probably wont do that because most of these misguided individuals are actually going to those colleges and universities that mommy and daddy pays for.
  3. When PV cant get out on BLS calls? because I can assure you ALS calls in PV on off hours MLSS gets dispatched auto....Unless they give Empire/HVP/Regional/Care1EMS a call asking if they have a unit before they dispatch.
  4. It appears county wont be dispatching them as Care1EMS because Pleasant Valley is now automatically covered by Mobile Life Support Services after 5pm M-F and on weekends.

  7. Glad I work nights and am able to watch this mayham first hand. Livestream is great. The media will never be able to give this type of coverage.
  8. I bet these people are worried about the economy. The amount of OT the city is dishing out for this has to be crazy. Thoughts go out to the FDNY Fire and EMS and NYPD and anyone else down there doing their job.
  9. Gettin pretty crazy down there.

  19. First 1,000? How many do you project will take the exam? What is considered a desireable grade?
  20. Also I saw SORT 3 was on the alarm. Does that mean that MLSS has 3 SORT Trucks? what do they consist of? Are there any special requirments to be on the SORT truck?
  21. Guess thats not 2nd alarm worthy.
  22. I am new to the whole applying for grants thing. I know the country as a whole is in a fiscal crisis but does anyone have any info on obtaining federal or state grants to build a new firehouse.
