of course i enjoy it!!!! i was a cadet on our dept for 1 1/2 years (primarily emt side then they let me try fire side) I LOVE EVERY BIT OF IT other than when people think its funny to fuck around on the fire ground! i technically am not an emt or a FF.....yet i am ALMOST done with FF2 n i have finished EMT class but havent passed the state exam to get my license what bout u
i believe we call it RIT......Rapid Intervention Team. if a FF is in distress these r the boys tht goin in 2 save ur ass! they r stationed by the engine company on our dept n our ready for a moments notice. they get 2 do things at the fire scene around the engine company (tht way they at least have something to do n get to do something)
i should have known what BA was.....as in SCBA..DUH! ne ways im really not sure bout that. i have been a cadet for a 1 1/2 years n i just made probie...i only been one for 2 weeks! im startin 2 learn more bout our SOP's n SOG's on the fire side. i no a lot of the SOP's n SOG's on the EMS side
yea i missed A LOT of good calls! 2 bad i wasnt here 2 go on them though.....im in FF2 n could have been signed off on some of my practicals. we usually arent busy.....10 big fires a year n then 50 calls for alarms goin off. we then have 400-600 some ambulance calls a year. so r u real busy working as a FF at an airport??? when i was in chicago waitin 4 my flight 2 leave i saw the airport fire truck about 9 times in 3 hours. i guess what im tryin 2 ask is what actually do u all do.....do u clean up the jet fuel when it is spilled?
my trip was great! i was a student ambassador for 9 days. im glad to be back home. i missed a 2 semi accident, a truck fire, a barn fire, n a pt tht went to the hsptl 2 get his stmach pumped bc of alcohol poisoning. i went to paris france, london, oxford, cantebury, woodstock, and heatherow england.
