So yesterday was my official duty shift on the ambulance and it became a busy one.  I got to the garage a lil before 6 am and the overnight crew still have it pitch black inside.  I decided to get my rig check done early and out of the way while enjoying my nice hot coco, which I let myself drink each Thursday morning as a diet cheat.  Rig check went well, got it done pretty quickly and the morning started to fly by…until around 8 am.  Let the floods begin.  The day turned into a steady stream of calls.  Once done with one, a new call would come through.  5 out of the 6 I went on were for cardiac/respiratory issues and the other one was an MVA.  All in a all a busy day and before I knew it it was 4 pm.  An hour past my check out time.  Another good day at Sayville Community Ambulance.
