As I head into day two post sinus surgery and Christmas day, I realize I have much to be thankful for. So much I won’t try to list it all here.

So….. Merry Christmas, my friends. To those of you working the streets: be safe, warm, and come home in one piece.

Godspeed, friends.

Do you Love your job?

1 comment

Seriously? Do you? This is a question my wife and I have been talking about for a while as she considering going back to school for various things. I know she doesn’t care for her job, but has always stayed because it pays well and we needed the money.

I switched jobs several times in a small time frame(and chronically through life) but have been with my current job for about 20 months. The pay leaves something to be desired… no seriously, but most of the rest of my job leaves me feeling satisfied. I am finally on a shift I like, get to see my family, and do a job that I am passionate about.  We have our fair shair of office politics and typical personality clashes associated with a company full of type-A personalities, but as a whole, I love my job.

This leads me to my current predicament. I am always interested in other jobs and opportunities. Not because I need to be… And I know that in this economy we should just be happy to have ANY job. Still, I find myself looking at other options. Next week I interview for what could be a very interesting opportunity–still working as a medic, but in a smaller hospital/ambulance setting.

So the questions persists, do you love your job? Do you look around?

Do You?

May God Have Mercy…

Today,  on the anniversary on one of the worst days in Firefighting history, 2 of Chicago’s Bravest perished during a building collapse. 14 others were injured during the initial collapse and subsequent search efforts.

May God Have Mercy on their Souls. May God Have Mercy.

When we got in the cab after loading a particularly odoriferous and rotund body the irony couldn’t have been any stronger…

Apparently I had left the radio on the oldies station, as “Stairway to Heaven” was blaring away…

I’d be lying if I said things like this didn’t make me smile. Since lying is bad, I won’t…

I’m actually still smiling…
