Been this guy in a place where we were even written out of labor laws and started in the early 90’s. When I started I made $6.50/hr and worked 168 hrs per two week rotation as an EMT. As. paramedic after I paid for my own education I got a raise to $8. It was brutal and we were the highest paid in our area. Some were getting $0.60/hr standby and $50 per call in rural areas where you would at that time get a call or two a week.

$50 per call but you can bet the patient is being billed $5k minimum for the ride, probably pocketed by insurance agencies or the hospital execs.
I can’t understand how people are EMTs and why there haven’t been riots over this, but God bless them.
Yes and those EMTs were making around $300/month.
