Great news today - thought I would share with my PH mates :D
Discussion
This might be a 'cool story bro' but I'm very excited, so, tough 
As some of you may or may not know, I have spent the best part of the last 3 years (not to mention racking up Student Loan debts of close to thirty grand
) training as a Student Paramedic, both at University doing the degree, and with on-the-job placements.
It's been a hard slog, but I have loved every minute of it.
I don't actually graduate and finish my course until this August - however, we go through the recruitment process with the Ambulance Trusts quite early on.
Anyway, I am delighted to say that today my Trust formally offered me a position as a fully-fledged Paramedic, to start after my course finishes. To say I am happy is an understatement, so I just wanted to share some good news in amongst what can sometimes be pages of moaning on these forums!
Thanks go to some other PH'ers who know who they are, who have helped me from the beginning with advice and encouragement. I hope that now I am in this position, I might help future Students myself.
Drink!

Why, do you have any chest pain?! Awww thanks guys and gals - feeling the love, it means a lot. Yep things were an absolute t
t for me before I started this - but that's life, highs and lows. Prior to the conveyer belt of crap, life has been great to me, so I can't complain really overall.And now, I have accomplished my latest goal, so life is rosy again, I am very excited, and the future looks bright.
Thanks for all your nice comments though. I'm almost welling up at the moment, soppy idiot
