Why I Joined Fire/EMS
Honestly... I first got into the Fire Dept. because my friends were involved with it. It was a place to hang out and have fun. It didn't take long to find out that there was something fulfilling about helping other people. I enjoy interacting with the public. I was a machinist for 15 yrs. I enjoyed the money but sometimes I stood in the same 4sq.ft. almost all day. There were no windows, heck even prisons have windows. Our town (Liberty) finally decided to hire another FF in 2006. I asked my wife if we could afford the pay cut, (10 Grand) she said yes so I applied for the job and got it. It would be nice to work 24/48 so I could pick up P/T job. Our schedule is 8-5pm M-F. Anyhow, that is why/how I became a FF.
