Why I Joined Fire/EMS

well i took my emt-b, firefighter I, and firefighter II, haz-mat awarness, haz-mat operations, and mayday firefighter down during my senior year in highschool just to have some b.s. classes and had no previous intrest and after starting the classes i really enjoyed it and decided to join the volunteer fire dept. and rescue squad and have been furthering my training since, im am currently going to college for my paramedic and a degree in fire science, so i guess i joined just by chance

Why I Love Fire/EMS

it helps make a name for yourself, people say us volunteers are crazy for doing this for free, but if you love doing it, then thats all that matters

Top Issues Facing Responders:

people who can't drive, if you can't see red lights or hear a siren behind you, then you don't need to be driving, and free lancing, you gotta follow orders on scene b/c if you don't thats how you get yourself or somebody else hurt or killed
