$20.00 an hour for a paramedic certification? Sounds really low to me, I hope it increases quickly.

Billy-- Conn. does not have same pay scale as NY. If I lived in Conn. I would take that job in a heartbeat. Figure all the perks you probably get. I don't have the time to get my Conn. reciprocity. Sound like who ever gets the job will be lucky.

Since the work is being done on the reservation, for the tribe, are there taxes on what is paid? Does the pay count towards social security calculations?
