Why I Joined Fire/EMS

cause it's cool, of course!

Seriously, I can't do the typical 9-5 paper pushing desk job. I would go absolutely crazy. I love the fact that I get to be outside and that my work environment always changes. I am always challenged.

Why I Love Fire/EMS

well, until a few days ago I would have said the camraderie. Now I'm not so sure.

Top Issues Facing Responders:

Burnout and retention. Also safety issues. It's important to insure that we all go home at the end of each shift.
