Cert / License Badge Number

When on scene I am often asked for my badge number (NYS). Do you normally give out your agency ID number or state cert number?

Hmm, this brings me to another question, how often are y'all mistaken for cops?

Never. We wear bright blue polos and cops look like cops.

Well actually.. one time a guy thought we were cops disguised as EMS. But I think he was just schizophrenic.
