Odd that someone who has performed CPR on infants, to doing their best to save someone from multiple gunshot wounds, to scraping motorists off of asphalt is "just telling me what I want to hear" when he doesn't make out like his job is any more or less important than his teammates on the ambulance. He loves and respects those dudes because they're his teammates and they work together. But yeah, must be that you just hear what they want you to hear, so let's go ahead and leave it like that, as you said.

I'd just add that paramedics have a wider area to cover, and are usually stretched to a breaking point.
