Got my EMT, confused where to go next

As the title says, I have completed my NREMT, woohoo… right? Only, I do live in SoCal and due to certain things, have no ability to move away from my parents nor land a fricken EMT job ANYWHERE. Everything is so incredibly over saturated here I’ll be re-certifying by the time I get hired! Ultimately my goal is Firefighter/Medic.

Personally, I’m thinking of 2 things here:

  1. Tuff it out, work some crap job to make money and save it whilst applying everywhere I can within drivable distance (anywhere from 1 to 1 and 1/2 hours away). Really it’s not different than what I am doing now. I’m already applying, already working that crap job, it’s essentially just that for as long as I need to. (Whilst doing this, I am also taking classes at my local CC in Fire Technology where I can get my AS in Fire Tech and my FF I)

  2. Join the military and do either Combat Medic or do a Firefighter position (I believe they have those). This to me is the less appealing option but it certainly isn’t bad. FD’s love those who came from the service from what I know and to already have a job in EMS or Fire plus Military could be really sweet. However, it prevents me from working on said degree as all classes must be in person. And, it prevents me from being able to enjoy my next few years with those I really care about.

What do you all think about this? Thank you all for your input

Building my Playlist and looking for suggestions

Hey yall, after years of hating country, I became a fan around 2023. Listened to a lot of Tyler Childers, Cody Johnson, Colter Wall. I’m trying to get more into the older stuff as I have a ton of new music on there between Cody Johnson, CW, Zach Top etc. I’ve added a fair number of older songs recently to try and build it out, if anyone wants a link to the playlist do let me know and I can add it, but really I’m looking for song suggestions! Thanks guys
