Im 21 currently trying to get my foot in the door with the department i wanted to work for since i was 5 years old. They have been in surmountable in allowing my to ride every third day for 24 hours just as if i work there. With this opportunity given i feel like i have shown them the best of my ablilities to do this job and shown them my determination not to quit until i get the job. I believe in the fact that you have to be happy with yourself through God before you can truly be happy on this earth thats why every day i try and live through him and serve him as best as i can. I love spending time with my family and relaxing when i can. I hope to be on at full time department within the next year.
I was 5 when my grandfather passed away, and to this day i stil remember the fire truck getting there first and trying to help him before the ambulance did. From that day on i wanted to be a firefighter and as i grew my passion only contiuned to become stronger for the job.
Why I Love Fire/EMS
I love helping people in their worst of times its a great feeling that your presence can most of the time bring a sense of calmness and a small sense of secuirty. This is my passion and im truly blessed to be 21 and living out my dreams.
Top Issues Facing Responders:
Consistency. I think every department in this country needs to work on that. i feel like to many live are put in danger because no consistency is ever used and it puts firefighters in a serious situation.
