Top Issues Facing Responders:
I feel that the biggest issue facing the fire service today is being under budguted, not having the money for the tools it takes 2 do the job. I also think this can lead to the lack of traning. The last issue is fire fighters don't get paid enough for what they do risking thier lifes.

    I absolutely love being a firefighter. How long have you been a firefighter?

    I've had my emt-b since I guess it was either july or august so it hasn't been that long. I just started my emt class in January though. I really like the medical aspect of firefighting too. I'm in college to be a nurse so....alrthough I don't think I could ever go without fighting fire.
