Sorry dude, but if you want I can show you my pay cheque that is not accurate that's taking the average wage between employees? What is that based on seeing everything was Private and AHS is still taking over services and equalizing hourly wage between different services. Meaning some places are being wage frozen?

Off the City of Edmonton Website for 2012

It may have been a little of an exaggeration but I believe the EMT starting wage is around 26$ an hour so it maybe not be more but its close!

Haha exactly!

No worries dude, I really don't want to see you pay check but bottom line is EMTs make more than bus drivers, that's all I was pointing out. Not trying to debate political garbage that I really don't care about. We can all compare our salaries to a lot of people and quickly become frustrated with the assumption we're under paid. All this information is published and we all make our own beds.

Also my understanding is most EMTs are just technicians and not actual paramedics and there's big difference between the two which could explain why EMT starting wages aren't great. :biggrin:

Subject change?!


Does anyone else feel like May, June, July have been just filled with Rain... I remember reading that June had 22 days of rain..

I think this thread needs a bump

So today on my way home I seen a total of 8 deer and 6 yotes.... Hit 2 deer and 2 coyotes

Deer were fine, by the time I hit them I wasn't moving very fast. They both got up and walked away.
