WHEN YOU GET CALLED HOW OFTEN IS IT NOT ACTUALLY AN EMERGENCY? I am not a robot, I don't need an exact percentage.

Wow is this the only question you guys can come up with? I don't know how often it is not an emergency.

We don't want numbers, we want stories. One would suffice. Surely you've had at least one case where you thought WTF why am I helping this clown instead of tending to a real emergency?

Obv. I do see where you are coming from with the dying on the bus argument - so it would have to be something really stupid, like someone scratched his knee on the pavement or sth like that. If you haven't had cases like that, just say that.

- Do people ever specifically track you down to thank you afterward?

- What's the funniest/most embarrassing accident you've ever been called in for?

- Are you bound by some kind of non-disclosure law, like doctors?

- EMT-specific inside jokes with coworkers?
