RE: Work....Damnit Jim, THAT was good!!!!

Wow Jim- You said more in that e-mail than any HR Dweeb could ever put

into a sentence, let alone be able to really want to take time to learn. I'm

impressed!

But....I noticed that Military Training, even of the SF/SAS realm, wasn't

mentioned.... Thats not acknowledging a very small number of the most Highly

Trained Trauma/Clinical Medical guys in the World. And, Graduates of the most

meat-grinding Medical Training in the World.

As I stated in a previous e-mail, my Class Graduated 5 out 93. If thats

not an attrition rate, what is? (Think of the Barry Sadler song fron 1966(?)).

We've been batting this around for awhile, so I'll end it there.

My point? Yeah we all need the courses mentioned, but it seems the

employers who are supposed to be such post-911 " Patriots " are discounting what

the

ex-Military are trained and experienced to do (work offshore). I had to go

through Civilian NREMT-P Certification and it was e-a-s-y after the " Goatlab

$ & %* "

we went through.

I find that the ol' " Veterans Preference " is lacking to put it bluntly.

Not to put down the guys who've never been in the Military. But, when a

" Joe " gets out, he still has mouthes to feed & finds the work ain't there due to

some new hoop to jump as far as being " Certified " in what he's done for

years, and worse.

Do you not agree this is a source of irritation for the Vets?

Just thinking aloud....CA

Hi Guys,

as an aside - is it only the offshore world that accepts military

medical qualifications??

Do ambulance and fire brigades require that you take further training?

which professional body covers them in the big wide world of Civi

street?

I'm truly interested as where ex mil medics go when they leave the

forces ....

this is just for interest & not aimed as a 'bashing' email - please

don't be offended I'm an ex- RAF nurse with paramedical quals - so seem

to cover most bases..

best wishes

Jim gave a free resume building seminar - I hope the FNG's looking for

experience were reading. Jim's advice is good for any medic who needs to put

together a resume; something they don't usually teach in paramedic training,

at least in the 'States.

Do they offer career development as a part of medic training in the other

countries represented on this list?

Before you ask me – DON’T BOTHER! It’s a long story involving pregnant

camels, x-ray gloves, confused Arabic customs officials, not to mention a

mad French woman and Rod’s introduction to the strange world of veterinary

medicine!
