Paramedic student in Ontario - what part of the documentation/paperwork actually drives you nuts?

Starting paramedic school this fall and trying to understand the real day-to-day before I'm in it. Everyone warns me about the patient care reports and the charting, but I want to hear it from people actually doing the job.

What's the part of the documentation side that genuinely annoys you the most? Is it the typing in the truck, the time it eats after a call, the ePCR software itself, the billing/coverage stuff, the handoff at the ER? Or is the paperwork honestly fine and I'm worrying about nothing?

Just trying to learn what's real vs. what gets exaggerated. Appreciate any honest takes!
