The other night we had a call for possible structure fire in our district.Well usually when we have a fire other districts show up for tanker support and what not. after about 30 minutes if hunting for an access to this fire we found a man burning trash in a sinkhole. I don't know about you all out there but I am sick of these B.S. runs that waste our time and resources because the public is too lazy to call in a controlled burn! How many others have to put up with this on a daily basis like us?

There's no such thing as a BS run. If it's important enough for someone to call, then it's important enough to respond. Remember...It's those people out there calling that keep you in business...Stay safe out there.

I agree but with fuel being at a high cost and sometimes manpower another here, it does really get to us sometimes.

Personally, I'm glad when we get these kind of calls: no fire, nobody's property being destroyed or pets lost, no dirty hose to roll or clean or re-pack, and we all go back home to what we were doing. And credit for a response. Assuming that everyone gets there and back home safely.
