Myokem Needs A New Board Rep!

Man I absolutely loved it. In some jobs you come home mentally stressed....not this one. I came home physically tired from 12 hour ER shifts but slept like a baby. It is a real sense of satisfaction knowing that you have helped others. Sure there where rough days but I wouldn't change a thing. It is an awesome feeling to know that you have helped to save a life. Emergency medicine can be stressful from time to time on shift but that's what you train for....to make a difference when it really counts. To serve others in such a fashion is a challenge but highly honorable and rewarding. Example....23 y/o female Marine MVA arrived on seen to find her vehicle flipped and the patient sitting calmly on a culvert alert and oriented x3. Based on the mechanism of injury patient was immediately placed in a c collar and placed on a spine board. At that point she started to present with a symptoms of a head injury pupils not equal round or reactive to light. Projectile vomiting followed. When I pulled into the ER my nurses jaw dropped when I gave report. There was vomit on the ceiling and on my person...it was everywhere. But she arrived packaged nicely with iv acess ready for meds. Nurse took my report and called another EMT in to let me go clean up. Was it nasty yes. Took a shower and enjoyed the rest of my day knowing I did what needed to be done in a proficient manner. That stuff is rare. There are sad days...9 heat casualties in one day with one fatality.....very sobering. I ran 4 of the calls. Didn't have the fatality....no one could have helped him 106 rectal temp...you can't save every one but you can try like hell. If you have the minerals for the task you will never regret it. Stay motivated and make the best grades you can it can litteraly be a life and death matter. I commend you for your career path. It will definitely be worth it in the end...

Well the reason I chose this path is because medicine is a passion of mine, but I always wanted to serve to honor my country and those who have fought or are fighting for it. Seems like this will be a great experience. Still debating whether I should go emergency surgery or specialize in something like orthopedics before going in to the navy.
 
That's a tough one. You will be doing good either way. Having had surgery and hardware installed.....I can really appreciate a good ortho doc. Emergency medicine was cool. One is definitely more stressful than the other. ER medicine is critical thinking at its finest. The clock is ticking. If you like being in a really fast paced environment with constant challenges that's the place for you. If like a more laid back environment and not want to deal with trauma or pathology ortho is cool. Your going to be helping others either way. How are you with high stress?

Good, I better be...I'm taking the MCAT in five days ;). In all seriousness I do very well in high stress, that is actually where a perform my best, especially if there is a time frame too.
 
It's a great conversation point when people ask what you do "I save lives" nuff said. You'll never be bored that's for sure at least not in a trauma center.
 
Final chance to apply will end at 8 PM, and we'll be announcing our decision tomorrow at some point I believe. If this changes, I'll definitely keep you all updated.

I just want to say regardless of who get's picked, I thank you all for applying and showing support for the brand. I speak for Myokemist and myself when I say we try to bring the best products to each category we enter and definitely don't want to be an "average" company. It thrills us that many of you are excited to come on board and want to help us continue to grow in 2015.

The decision will definitely be a tough one, as many of you submitted great applications. If we could we'd take on ten reps ;) but that's not feasible haha.

So with that being said, thank you all so much for wanting to join and represent us in our adventure to the top, and thank you for taking the time to apply.

Good luck everyone!!
 
No thank you for giving us the opportunity!! It's a blessing and whoever gets it is so lucky to have such a great team behind them. Good luck and my the odds be in your favor.

I see somebody likes hunger games ;)
 
Yes we have some pats fans in here!! You guys are smart!! Alright tomorrow is the day!
 
It's always more fun for me to go Snowboarding and the watch the Super Bowl with my dad when the Pat's make it. I can't wait until my Maine snowboarding trip. This makes it all the more fun. Best to all on tomorrow's big decision!
 
Whoever becomes rep should make a Super Bowl promo for a product! That way no one loses!
 
Man, with all these Pats fans, I'm going to have to reconsider this open rep position! Lol jk
 
Everyone be nice to my patriots!! I am sorry your team does not have Mr. Belichick or as i call him the yoda of football. Either SuperBowl 49 will be amazing
 
I cannot stand either team in the super bowl. I guess as a bears fan the hawks are the lesser evil
 
I don't watch much football. But I am in Maine for Super bowl weekend and things are much more exciting when the Patriots are in it. Must be all the New Englanders that are there :)
 
Everybody we are all friends here, if you don't like the pats then you don't like Merica.
 
Not a Patriots fan, I do like Brady, but I am rooting for them to destroy the Seattle punk-ass Seahawks. Seattle CAN NOT come into our (Cardinals) house and win the freaking Super Bowl. So for 1 day, you can call me a Patriots fan.
 
I was thinking the other day that a strawberry daiquiri flavour for a pre-workout or BCAA would be nice.

Havana sunrise is not far off that.
