Why I Joined Fire/EMS

I have passion for helping people. I never really saw myself sitting behind a desk all day doing paperwork or anwering phones. Even through high school I couldnt deal with being in a classroom all day. So I transfered to a military academy. After I graduated I went on into the militay. I served a short period of time before recieving a medical discharge. When I came home I didnt want to just sit at home all day and do nothing. So I decided to do something about it. I went out serching for a job but nothing ever got my interest. A couple weeks after that a friend told me about the Vol Fire Department down my street. I didnt think much of it at first. Didnt even know if I could do it. But when I showed up for one of the mthy meetings everyone was so nice to me. I was acceped on, studied and worked my ass off. And here I am. 9mths later and cant see myself doing anything else. My passion for firefighting is so great that I devote most of my time to it. Tring to get as much experence as possible and as many certs as I can. I hope to one day soon work full-time for the department. But I guess only time will tell.
I will be starting EMT school next mth and am very excited. Like I said....I love helping people.
