First joined CFA 1985 and still going strong had a short spell between 89 to 95 with a shift of work etc. Always been a voulenteer type person who enjoys helping others and a good team enviroment.
My Training:
After a while and plenty of training on offer you can rack up a few qualifications. Which all being well should mean you get the job done well in theory then in practise when needed ? But for the record I am a Deputy Group Officer , 1 st lt in my local brigade crew leader who is also strike team leader when required and B/A search & recue operator with lot of other bits and pieces under these. But remember it's not the bits of paper that make you a good Fireman.
Day Job:
self employed
Relationship Status:
Married
Why I Love Fire/EMS
team working for the good of all it comes across
Top Issues Facing Responders:
Doing our job in a quick efficient and safe maner to the satisfaction of all. Knowing full well that every real job you do could involve a lot of missery for them the caller and a little bit of there misery for you the responder. There lies the challenge.
Thanks David, yes its takes a while to get used of the system, but the more you use it the more you discover. yes it is wet here, only because I am on holidays. Wife and I are off to the UK next week. I will be assessing Road rescue at world level at Cardiff / Wales.
