Normal
I did it for about 5 years and loved it, but eventually the constant lack of sleep really got to me...we would work 72 hours straight and only get about 2 or 3 hours of sleep each of those nights...and of course, I was constantly eating fast food which isn't good and on my days off I was so tired I basically just slept all the time...so as much as I loved it I realized it was killing me. So right now I'm working as a caregiver for elderly people (doing housework, running errands, etc.) and I'm going back to college to study radiology. But if you're interested in being an EMT it isn't hard to get into. I think it's about 120 hours of training which is about as long as a semester. But to be a paramedic you have to have about a year of training...but a lot of ambulance companies will actually pay for you to do the training so that's pretty cool.Your boyfriend's comic sounds pretty cool.
