    Welcome to the nation. I myself have only been a member for a short time and I can't believe it took so long for me to join.

    So you are the Lt that keeps rescue captain Ladd in place so he does not get in trouble doing EMS. Tell Robert I said hi.

    Hey-- I noticed you said your day job is On-Site EMT? What exactly does this mean? It sounds like you are working as a FF on a Dept that doesn't do EMS? Just curious to find out how different places do things. I'm a volunteer on a department that has integrated Squad and Fire. We're housed together and run together, and a lot of people do both, though it is not required.

    Neat! Must be a pretty big construction site/business to have its own fire department! Well, be safe and take care.
