Shame on whoever you were talking to, if paramedics were paid what they're worth, we couldn't afford them. Some professions are followed from the heart (paramedic, fire fighter, police, teacher) not the wallet. I thank God every day that there are people out there willing to do what has to be done for the good of others. I'm a Union Laborer by trade, currently working the nukes, THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart to those of you who work in "giving" professions.
