  • Randy Macey

    Thanks for the ad.... Your right "Close Calls" is something I see with new and season firefighters.
    Figured it would be good to learn by others, we always learn best by others mistakes. Some tasks you don't get a second chance at....

    Thanks Dogg, things are going ok in Balto, know any good chiefs? Ours is leaving at the end of the year!
  • Randy Macey

    Understand that feeling, preach what we teach or is it the other way around.
    We all learn by mistakes, and sometimes share those mistakes of others to new recruits or other firefighters so that they don't have to learn the hard way. Thanks for sharing,
    I think that is one of my biggest fears is falling through a floor. Most of our homes in our area are all design homes. So each time you go in one, it's a different feeling not knowing the lay out. I came close to one with a basement stairs that did not have a railing around the entrance going down. Just one big hole and lots of smoke, and did not feel right and took a couple of seconds to figure out what it was....

  • Sheryl

    Yea, the weather is pretty nasty but it's mostly rain and extreme fog. North Arkansas (where my son is) is getting hammered with ice though. How is the weather where your at?? STAY SAFE!!!!
  • Spanner 122

    Hey Dogg!! Thanks for the comment. I had another concern about an 18 year old driving the rig, but I thought I would leave that for someone else to pick up on! I just feel we encounter enough dangers, there are so many things we can prevent!!
  • Spanner 122

    Yup, the snow is flying here now.We're expecting anywhere from 40-65 cms... wooohooo, definitely going to have to ski this week!! :)

    I don't think you were harsh at all. It pains me to hear comments like that (the second one in particular) from teenagers who have experienced nothing other than high school and tv. Sigh... hopefully he comes to his senses, and hopefully he isn't really driving!
