Divorced with four kids, not crazy just fertile...lol. They are 18, 13, 13 AND 11. At least two of them have the bug and love being at the station and wanting to be in fire/ems when they're older. It's kind of neat thinking I may have started the first generation to a long line of volunteering:-)
Day Job:
Screening potential organ and tissue donors....
Relationship Status:
Divorced
Why I Joined Fire/EMS
I participated in a FF1 class as a reporter to write and take pictures of the experience for a levy that was on the line...needless to say, the levy passed and I was stuck:-) Graduated from paramedic school in '05.
Why I Love Fire/EMS
Challenges...I love being the person that makes a difference in someone's difficult time...
Top Issues Facing Responders:
Recruitment and retention in the part time paid/PPC department. How much longer can these departments hold on? Many in my area refer to themselves as full time, part timers, and as the numbers of volunteers dwindle and the training requirements climb, I don't see how some departments will survive...
My name is Adel and I am trying to figure out what products are best for female firefighters. I have worked as a firefighter for only three years so I am just getting started. Currently I am a student at Eastern algerinne University in in the Fire & Safety Engineering Technology Program. Although I have only been a firefighter for three years I have had my fair share of small gloves that were still too big and pants that went up to my belly button! I was wondering if you could take the time out of your busy schedule to share some of your favorite/best fitting/most functional products for female firefighters. Weather it’s an awesome fitting pair of pants, A polo shirt that has sleeves that do not go down to your elbows, a pair of great gloves, or boots that have an awesome fit. It would be greatly appreciated if you could share your opinions with me. Thank you very much. Please feel free to e-mail me back at adel_pomper@hotmail.com or leave me a comment
