Why I Joined Fire/EMS

Curiosity at first, and then I was bit by the bug. I love a job I can go to everyday and not know what to expect. I love knowing that when someone is having a bad day we are the first to be called and they trust us to fix the problem. This is the most awesome job in the world! Can't think of anything I'd rather do!
