I'm not there yet, but I will be next month. I'll be at Mountain Home AFB, working as a Med Tech.

I'm close enough. I'm in Spokane, but my wife works in CDA. Wouldn't mind finding a job there, but everything close requires a FF1, which I don't have.

Dont think you can make the medic testing this weekend (Your welcome to try...take a look at the hiring packed for deatils and deadlines), but keep an ear out and you never know what will pop up! Probably test again next spring.There is a thread in the ALS forum or the EMS general forum that talks abnout the Beni's and service.

Also montet202, where u at? Trying to get on somewhere?

If your in the SW Idaho, let me know, Ill buy a beer!

Croaker -
Yah, I'm very familiar with Ada County. I've heard it's a great service to work for, and that they help the medics be the best they can be. I have a friend that worked there a few years ago and he highly suggested I test. But I've heard the testing process is BRUTAL! I got B's in my A & P classes, an A in Cardiology and ACLS, a B in Pharmacology, but I don't think I'm smart enough to pass your guy's written.

I took the 'sample' test, and I don't think I knew half the answers. Maybe I'll test in the spring.

I even took a trip to your beautiful city prior to medic school and sure fell in love with the area.

We'll see.

I am up in the Panhandle where two of your guys just left from. (And understandably so) We have another fleeing your way soon as well. I am here for the lake and the mountain.

I looked into Ada, and have had a few friends go through there, but I don't think I could take Boise. Too far from the htings I love. (More than ten minutes is too far, by the way.) But I will look you up my next trip through and take you up one that beer. Haven't turned one down yet.

They have both left for good. I believe that they went to school there in the past few years. I came just after they left and didn't get to meat them.

Shoot me an e-mail and I'll fill you in on what I can't say here:
