Are You Afraid Of The Dark?
We're all scared of something. Myself? Like Indian Jones, I'm petrified of snakes! I had one start chewing on my arm when I was about 13 and after that, never been the same. A call with snakes is the one thing that would DEFINITELY freeze me in my tracks. How about you? What call would/has stop(ped) you in your tracks? What scares you in the fire service?

Can't agree more with the chief.
I hate to work on the highway you get the dam rubber neckers that look then drive right at us. Or the ones that Blow by us at 70 mph. Things are almost completely out of are hands and in the hands of drivers who just don't care. We can do somethings to protect are selves but as a firefighter we know things can go wrong in a hurry.
The other thing is rats and mice, YUCK!!! Give me a snake any day they don't carry the dam plague or other things that about wipe out all of mindkind or bring on the dark ages.

When I got to my seasonal job as a Wildland Firefighter in Northern Alberta, we were warned about a guy that had just gotten out of jail and was put there because he would call Fish and Wildlife officers about some "problem" he was having, then after they arrived, he would stalk and hunt them taking pot shots at them in the woods. Can't say that would be fun. Something similar go through your head that night David?
