Job Shirt
Just got my new job shirt for my medic nights, I do have a heavy winter coat but at times, even when it is near zero out thats to much to be wearing, I tend to stay warm even in severe cold weather. So I oordered my shirt last Friday and it was supposed to be ready today, We have to buy our own job shirts here, don't know why and don't care, but the cool thing was our quartermaster called me from the station and told me had been to the uniform store and had picked it up for me. So it saved me a trip up there (only about a 15-20 minute drive though) to which saved me from running up there and using my own fuel to go and get it. My Dept. may not supply all we need but they supply us with what we need the most and then when you least expect it they help out by picking up your stuff you ordered what a Dept. to me the best, but I am sure there are lots like that.

You know, there are a couple of messages, or lessons here. 1st, you are showing some pride and dedication to your fire company by puting out some money into that job shirt. 2nd, that quartermaster thought of you by doing that favor for you w/o being asked. They both are parts of the "brotherhood" we share in the fire service. It is sometimes the small things that we do for each other that go a long way.
Stay safe!
