Pros

Some cool co workers Get to park almost anywhere to check out interesting things around the city while in between calls.

Cons

Even going through a pandemic is not enough of a justification for being paid a livable wage. Upper management WILL throw you under the bus for anything Living the fact that you're always broke and can only afford pizza... And the person making your pizza makes more than you. You will learn to hate all humans after a few months at this job
