EMS and paramedic work can be tough. I know a bunch and a few that it broke. Paramedics and Firefighters see some shit
I'll be honest, the thing that drives me the most crazy is the amount of absolute bullshit we respond to. I don't mind taking the serious calls at all (and I have seen some shit) but I'd bet about 75% of the calls we take are an absolute waste of resources. It's really hard to explain to someone thats not a first responder but trust me if there's some other cops or medics here they can vouch for this.
As a matter of fact I have a couple of the exceptionally dumb calls I've been dispatched to screenshotted on my phone. I've been meaning for some time to edit out the personal info and post them in the meme thread for all guys to laugh at. One of these days I'll get around to it.
Edit: here's one example.
This is my job ladies and gentlemen, saving stupid people.
