Yes! NYC EMTs, though they FINALLY received a well-deserved increase - still earn a pretty low salary. They are first responders, often the very first to the scene which is too often volatile! They save lives. They should be awarded an EZ-pass AND as long as not blocking a garage or parked near a fire hydrant, they should NOT be given parking tickets. Some come home in the middle of the night and there is no parking to be found and they certainly cannot afford a garage. Small perks for special people that this City would be at such a loss without.
I definitely agree! One of the most important city services and the most under appreciated (and underpaid).If something is not done they will be forced to find other employment. Tough to raise a family on their wages. No wonder so many EMT’s leave the job in the first few years.
