howie’s halfpipe

Well today was the second and final day of our work first aid course. I last did a first aid course in 2001 and this one was heaps easier much less stuff to remember.

Michael DeBeer (our trainer) picked on me today, we had to do a demo on CPR to show we could do it, everyone else had, no blockages or stuff stuck in their airways or anything, i had to go last and do mine in front of everyone and i had everything, stuff stuck in the throat then when i started CPR the person came alive again and then i had to clear vomit out of their mouth, i passed and did well but everyone else had it easy.

then when it was certificate time, my name was printed wrong it said “Robert Howie smells’ printed on it.

apparently soneone last week when we filled out the roll thing wrote ’smells’ after my name and so when michael printed the certificates he printed exactly what was on the roll. After a while he handed me my real one.
