  They’re looking for the few, the proud — and the really desperate.
  
  For a measly $19 an hour, a government contractor is offering applicants the opportunity to get up close and personal with potential Ebola patients at JFK Airport — including taking their temperatures.
  
  Angel Staffing Inc. is hiring brave souls with basic EMT or paramedic training to assist Customs and Border Protection officers and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in identifying possible victims at Terminal 4, where amped-up Ebola screening started on Saturday.
  
  EMTs will earn just $19 an hour, while paramedics will pocket $29. Everyone must be registered with the National Registry of Emergency Medical Technicians.
  
  The medical staffing agency is also selecting screeners to work at Washington Dulles, Newark Liberty, Chicago O’Hare and Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta international airports.
  “Wow, that’s really scary . . . Be safe everybody,” Facebook user Jaclyn Namer wrote under a posting for the job.
  
  Others were a little more eager to lend a hand.
  
  “I can help on weekends in Chicago,” Jeremy Voris volunteered on Facebook.
  
  
  As part of the new screening process, travelers arriving from Sierra Leone, Guinea and Liberia must answer questions upon arrival, then have their temperatures taken with no-touch thermometers, CDC Director Thomas Frieden announced last week.

  About 150 people travel from or through the three Ebola-afflicted countries to the US every day, customs officials said.
  Most of them land at JFK, where officers fear catching the deadly disease.
  “We were told what to do for a passenger, but what happens with us? What if I get a fever? What should I do?” one officer said.
  The officer was also troubled by possible flaws in the screening plan.

  “You just possibly contaminated the person next to you and the flight attendant who handed you something.”
  Meanwhile, a law-enforcement official at JFK was outraged over the handling of a plane carrying a man from Nigeria who died following an onboard vomiting fit.
  The door to the jet was already open when first responders showed up.
  Even though Ebola isn’t airborne, the official insisted it could have been a potential health threat.
  “We don’t know if anybody bolted from that plane or if the inside of the door is contaminated,” he said.

Sorry, actually working for a living is beneath democrats!

I bet some illegals would do it!

Especially if it meant auto citizenship after 4 years...

I can just imagine this will be considered a job "no American will do"...

Mostly because our entire nation has been cheapened and degraded by events of the past 40 or years...

The liberal mindset has reduced us to this.

$19 an hour?  Those are damn good wages for a job, I've worked for much less over the years.  But given the severity of this, and the fact they only need basic EMT or medical experience (CNA and orderly positions require basics as well and that's cleaning up bedpans and vomit on the floor and are held by mostly foreign workers), I would have to wonder who will be getting the jobs...

If you can believe Obama and/or Hooty, no worries... No way can any American catch this unless there are body fluids passed between the two.

They'd better hope that no one with Ebola will ever go to a gay bar.
