i'm a firefighter with an vol. dept. at my station we have no beds. but in your office area we have an couch and big big chair. i know they are sure nice to seat in after a call during the middle of the night or just when a few of us are up at the station hanging out.

We have about 30 members that could possibly sleep on the mattresses. Members are instructed to bring their own bedding. One of the problems is that the Firefighters/ Engineers have been given new bunks but the Officers have not.

We have bunk beds that are ok. There not that great but we have been trying to get a new station and or at least a add on this would give us the extra sleeping quarters so we would have the top of the line beds.

As much as they suck, I bet they put them in there for a reason... possibly because of stain resistance, cleanability, cost among others... My question would be, how many different folks use each bed, and what would the shared cost be to get a tolerable mattress, and would they allow yall to buy your own collectively?

Just some thoughts...

Were trying to fight the mattresses actually. At the very least have the department supply the sleeping "aides".
