my only advice to you is this, join a volunteer department, and see if it's what you want to do. if it fits you, then get your fire classes out of the way in college, that way you can still fight fire and go to school. get your ff1 and ff2, and your emt, it will take time but will work out for you in the end. best of luck young buck

Mark:
If you have no experience yet, the best way to go is a volunteer fire department.
Contrary to popular belief by some, there are some very good volunteer departments around.
It will give you an opportunity to take classes, hands-on training, gain real-world experience and knowledge so that someday, you may move to a career in it. I spent my entire career as a volunteer.
Now, I am a fire commissioner.
Once you get your certifications and experience, you may even consider becoming a state instructor.
I know many who were state instructors who went on to become full time and in some cases, went on to run career departments.
Don't get discouraged.
But, you may have to "think a little smaller" to chase your dream.
Good luck.

Why baby him? If he's interested in the job, he should know the truth. I think I actually did help him. Instead of telling him to keep trying and he will get on with Boston, I told him he probably won't if he's not a resident. He should know that and I told him instead of lying. Maybe now he will change how he ends up trying to find a job and it will end up working.

For either one you need to learn how to put a sentence together. Use capitals, commas etc. pay attention is school.
