Hey Jay Jay. You know what, it's great you have a plan about your career and what you want to do at such an early age. I knew what I was going to do when I was 16 and it makes it a hell of a lot easier as far as education and training goes. We're lucky to have chosen such a great career at such a young age. So many people dont know what they want to do with their lives even when they finish college! That would suck! But as far as CFD goes, dont count on them testing anytime soon. As you know the last test was the first one given in a 10 year span. It's only been 3 years since the last one! Unfortunately, with all the time I've spent with chicago, you can never count on them for anything. So much for their saying, "We're There When You Need Us." Haha.
Engine 32, Truck 60. Very nice. I'm sure you'll have a hell of a time out there. Do you live by there or what? How did you get that house?
And no im not studying fire science. I wish. But DePaul sucks ass cause it doesnt have anything fire science or EMS related. I came here because Im on a softball scholarship. Besides, the one piece of advice that i got from all firemen, was to get a degree in something OTHER than fire science.
Yeah I've heard of the CPFTA. I was at the firehouse the other day and a a guy I haven't met before came up to me and introduced himself. He asked if I was a student. I said yes, cause I'm a student at DePaul, which is only a couple blocks from the firehouse. He thought I was a high schooler. Haha. I'm like, "Umm, I'm 23 years old."
Hey Jay, Thanks for getting back to me. My captain and myself are considering a trip to Chicago to present this opportunity to Chicago firefighters. If you would like more information on this opportunity I can send you the link to my web page. Thanks again and good luck in the academy
Hey Bro,
Hope you don't mind this message, but I'm trying to make a Chicago connection for a business opportunity that is going through the FDNY. More and more members are signing up daily. Its only in three states presently but will eventually be in all fifty. It has to do with the deregulation of gas and electricity. If you know anyone who's looking to make a second income, please let me know. Thanks and stay safe!
