Putnam Co EMS ALS- My last Shift

[Medic442 15]

I am here at Punam Valley Vac, (Medic 2). This is just shy of half of my last shift working in Putnam under Hudson Valley.

I would like to say to all of you that I worked and have become friends with, " Thank you and I have enjoyed working with you all." I am going to miss working in the county, but will still enjoy volunteering in the Valley. To all my senior Medics, Rizzo, Tracy, Bill O, John, Eric, Mike, Matt, The Dr Rev, & others that I havent named. Thank you for all that you have taught me & standing up for me and with me while doing my job. I have had a great time riding with Put Vall, The Falls, Mahopac, Carmel, Garrison, Brewster, Lake Carmel, Kent.

Philipstown, John E, I also thank you. You where a great Boss. To the Putnam Dispatchers, thanks as well.

So with the changeover upon us, who is going to remain as medics in Putnam and who is going elsewhere? Sounds like Oppie is going to work elsewhere, and I hear the same for Bill O. I know Rev is sticking around. Anyone else?

I know that I'm staying doing Thursday, Saturday and Sunday overnights in Medic 2, to be relieved by Butler on Friday, Grande on Sunday and Mahoney on Monday morning, Lombardo, Monroe, Rizzo, and McSorley are coming back as is Rev. I know that there are more people that are coming over from Empire, I mean Hudson Valley. Oppie thanks for helping me out over the last several months it was much appreciated.

Hey Tom I am sure we can pull some strings and get you back down in the YO!!!

X710, Thanks, that means alot. If you want talk or call Bob C, at TOPS. I was one of several on his LIST of not to be allowed in Putnam. Transcare, did take me on, but at this time only for Dutchess because of his list. I still havent got a call back from Bob. I also heard others have called for me as well.

Turbo, yes you are right. Seth you where included, we had some good calls together. The fact is I have learned and really thank you all, even the ones that I didnt get along with. Anyways, Still working Alamo, HVPS, & now Transcare as well. I am still living in the Valley, maybe I will see you all as a Volley. Matt any time you are welcome.

Nice to see some familiar names on the list and its always a joy to run into some of the Medic 1 and 2 guys I worked with a while back at Hudson Valley. Good luck within the new regime taking on Putnam. Butler...I'm surprised you haven't started your own friggin company yet. If you do...I'm in!

Tom, keep your chin up...crap happens bro.
