I’ve been thinking about interesting observations about this job, and something I’ve noticed is that we all seem to have problems with boundary setting, which seems to often contribute to a lot of the problems we see.

I feel like identifying yourself as a paramedic on the internet at first pass is part of the boundary setting that I’m talking about. I understand some plumbers and lawyers and garbage collectors and postal workers and programmers and civil engineers also do the same but it seems overly common for EMTs and Paramedics to have identifying usernames or email addresses that are tied to their work and that is the kind of “leakage” that I’m talking about as well.
I don’t see that as a boundary problem. Why wouldn’t people be proud to have a piece of their career in a username?
When meeting new people IRL, one of the top & earliest questions will be, “What do you do for work?”.
