I remember going to a job working in
00:00:02
Helensville and and at the time you
00:00:03
would work single crude. Ended up down
00:00:05
this long driveway, drove nose down,
00:00:06
which you never do. You always reverse
00:00:08
down in case you don't know what you're
00:00:09
going into at 2:00 on a Saturday night
00:00:11
and there was a person on the ground
00:00:13
unconscious in a pool of blood and there
00:00:14
was a whole bunch of people standing
00:00:16
around. So, you know, you walk in, you
00:00:17
want to get a little bit of history of
00:00:18
what's going on. No one would talk, but
00:00:19
one guy said, um, they've fallen down
00:00:21
the stairs. There was no stairs
00:00:22
anywhere, so you can read between the
00:00:24
lines. patient was critically unwell and
00:00:25
needed to be in hospital, but I couldn't
00:00:27
get the patient off the ground onto the
00:00:28
stretcher without the help of someone
00:00:30
giving me a lift. So then this guy
00:00:32
turned on me and he said, "Well, where's
00:00:33
the person you're working with?" And he
00:00:34
said, "Man, if you don't get this person
00:00:36
out of here, we're basically going to up
00:00:37
type thing, you know." And so in the
00:00:39
end, I just had to bend down and like
00:00:41
just wrestle this person onto the
00:00:42
stretcher and then getting the stretcher
00:00:44
up and into the back of the truck and I
00:00:46
had this person following me the whole
00:00:47
way. There was certain things, you know,
00:00:49
like if you don't have good
00:00:50
self-awareness and self-regulation in
00:00:52
those moments on those jobs, you can
00:00:53
find yourself in a really bad situation.
