According to Indeed, the average salary for paramedics is $69.06/hr.

Multiply that by 40 hrs per week, and 52 weeks of pays, we're looking at ~$143k/yr.
It is not shockingly high pay, and I'd say the pay is too low given the tough decisions, the importance, and the yuck factor the job comes with. But I also wouldn't call it a crappy pay, esp when I'm sure it'd be super easy to raking up additional OT hours.
Or is Indeed just BS-ing?
