Re: Re: [emsat] Fw: Assault

Hi There:

Sorry to admit I'm one of the folks that usually sits back, reads the messages

generated through the server, then either shake my head or nod in agreement.

This time I am sticking my foot in my mouth. I'm rather good at it.

I have had the opportunity to work in many different environments within the

EMS community, public sector, private sector, hospital-based, etc. The main

difference I have noticed between each is the color of the vehicles, the uniform

worn, and the name at the top of the paycheck. The job is the same. Each

responds to calls in similar ways, works just as hard as the other, and

hopefully, has the same positive outcome.

The argument of public sector versus private sector is easy. If taxing

entities decide to provide these needed services themselves, the private sector

dissappears. No need for them anymore. In lieu of that happening, private

sector providers take on the job. Those private sector folks provide services

to that taxing entity and perform (in most cases) in the same way the taxing

entity would if they were providing the service directly. Doesn't that make

these EMS workers pseudo-public servants? They sweat the same amount; get as

few hours of sleep; tell the same bad jokes; and they are injured or killed by

the same causes. Sounds like the same to me.

To continue this same line of thought, if person " A " working for City of _____

EMS is entitled to such benefits ( and he or she should be), then person " B "

working for ____ EMS, Inc. should be as well.

Thanks for " listening " .
