1. They have more gadgets than Batman hanging off their belt.
2. They don't just crank the BP cuff up to 200 and let it go down from there.
3. They suggest using a KED board for extrication.
4. They have their pager on scan 24/7.
5 They have the 'Stare of Life' - Look on a rookies face during his first code.
On a side note, I have found that the word Tachypnea makes me giggle. I have yet to figure out why.

I must have some anti-newbie abilities. First code, no freak out mode. No gizmo's, just a flashy blue jumpsuit. And sadly, most of the time I don't even carry my pager around.... my bad. Guess some people just "get it" and some don't. :)
I think you have an advantage over most "newbies". You do not qualify as newbie. Sorry Willy. ;oP
