Why I Joined Fire/EMS
I could say the adreniline rush but..nah ..not where I work , I gotta say helping people . The job gives me a sense of satisfaction and self-worth . Knowing for the most part its different from day to day. Also when I hear people talking about their jobs and saying how much they hate it and don't look forward to going to work ..... I can honestly say I love my job and I really do look forward to going in next shift .
Why I Love Fire/EMS
The feeling of self worth and satisfaction.... plus only working 2 dats a week.
Top Issues Facing Responders:
Training , physical fitness , lack of commerodery ( think I spelled that wrong ).

There are many others as well that would like to know but also dont care to wade through the crap in there. Sorry your topic had to get so messy..LOL Maybe a new post would work out ;o)
