Sadly, yes. A vast amount of EMTs are volunteers. Sure, they are trained and certified but due to essential services, mostly medical ones, not working inside capitalism without ducking things up royally, some municipalities with have paid medics and volly EMTs. That’s why you hear a lot of, oh, you’re the “ambulance driver”. So a number of these folks are in it for their own interests, weither because they are in medical school or are adrenaline jockies. The blend of those two tends to breed Wackers.
