dank memes

Rules:

  1. All posts must be memes and follow a general meme setup.

  2. No unedited webcomics.

  3. Someone saying something funny or cringe on twitter/tumblr/reddit/etc. is not a meme. Post that stuff in !the_dunk_tank@www.hexbear.net, it's a great comm.

  4. Va*sh posting is haram and will be removed.

  5. Follow the code of conduct.

  6. Tag OC at the end of your title and we'll probably pin it for a while if we see it.

  7. Recent reposts might be removed.

  8. Tagging OC with the hexbear watermark is praxis.

  9. No anti-natalism memes. See: Eco-fascism Primer

If you get first aid training, do they bring it up? What if they're unconscious, do people get anxiety about calling the ambo?

When my job had first aid training, I asked a similar question, and they said that as long as we were on company property we had to call 9/11 even if the person begs you not to and even if you're willing to drive the person to the hospital yourself.

For liability reasons, obviously the company isn't going to help you pay your medical bills or anything. Best case scenario, your teammates mass spam a donation email and you might get a couple hundred bucks for a several thousand dollar ambulance drive.

I think it's actually a legal requirement here if you have a first aid ticket and its safe to do so to call an ambulance after doing a check. But also I think the ambo is free in those cases too (you have to pay for the ambulance if its considered frivolous, like using it as a taxi to get to work next to a hospital)

that seems pretty reasonable
