The Backroom Crew

This is a place where we can sit down, put our feet up and chill. Where the Boys and Girls can just be themselves. The Back Room or what most firefighters call a ''day room or rec room'' is the social point of every firehouse.

Kyle:

big old barn - so like a 20' x 40' bldg ???

or 200' x 400' bldg?

good good that they contained it to the first floor

2 lines for the entire fire??? are you sure ???

residents hurt ? animals hurt ? FFs hurt ?

sounds like you learned an important thing... BUT THERE IS MORE TO LEARN !!

such as use a spotter when backing up a truck - especially in a strange place - LOLOL

sorry I got a little distracted away from my computer - I did not mean to leave the conversation so abruptly - phone kept ringing... I am interviewing new housemates...

_______________________________
Wow Jim - they had phones back in YOUR day ??

crapped pants on Thanksgiving... no wonder you remember all the details...

holy cow - NO GEAR - damn glad I missed working in that era...

orange rubber gloves - SO GLAD I MISSED THAT ERA - so much so words can not express... since when I was a child I burned all the skin off from both of my hands (separate incidents)... but I can not handle have hot hands without freaking just a little...

Hey Ernie !!!

Jim- Wow, talk about one hell of an experience for your first fire!!

Kyle- Congrats and, as Heather stated, find out the answers to those questions. That is one of the best ways of learning...ask questions!! We haven't had any calls for quite awhile here.

you are going to have to do research on all the questions I asked below - talk to the other FFs and find out those answers.
