Wow, it must be hard trying to help people in their most embarrassing, gruesome, disturbing, and tragic moments in life.
Sometimes it is. Sometimes I have been known to cry and /rage at anyone who will listen (at the squad house) because some things SOME people can never handle.
I had nightmares for years about 1 call I still do not give details about, nor will I ever discuss.
You learn to cope and deal because 90% of the population couldn't handle what we do for more then 1 day.
So if we laugh at the embarrassing, its so we don't /wrist over the impossibly sad.
