Please- get a grip! While normally I would agree with not judging others - here is my opinion.
While most of us do not have perfect driving records - most of us DO NOT HAVE A JOB THAT REQUIRES US TO DRIVE FOR A LIVING!!
This man should not have been hired for this position. I doubt he normally would have been hired for a pizza delivery position .
As a nurse, an ER nurse - I respect and understand the training involved in being an EMT or a Paramedic. We ARE held to higher standard. And we SHOULD be.
It is sad that this happened. I am sure that the driver feels terrible. But I promise - this girl's family feels worse.
His family will see him again.
Part of mourning is anger- while it may not always be right- it is what happens.
So quick to Judge
