Thank You as well sir !! Thing's are ok here except the central air unit quit today and its very warm but we will make it !! Have a great day and be safe !
You get more hands on exp in one month than I will in 5 years. Not sure if this is a good thing or bad. Would love to get "busy" for a while though. We have not had a real fire call for about 5 months. just piddly stuff that you can stomp one with one leg. LOL Take care and Keep safe. Maybe if I get down that way will look you up and see how the "bigboys" do it. LOL
Hey man, sorry its taken me so long to get back to you but i have just been bussy as hell for the past 3 months. All is well with me, how about your self?
Whats up ? Hope yall havent been to busy . We have been too busy for our little dept. the last big fire we had was about 2500 acres. with the help of many other departments we had it out in about 14 hours . talk to ya later
our coverage area is about 165 miles with most people living in the county. We only have a population of 636 that live in our small town. so i would say most of our calls are out in the county . be safe
The only ones that were overworking it today was a neighboring FD that had 3 grass fires at one time. So we were toned out for mutual aide and ended up driving 42 miles round trip . but we did what we had to do to help out another department.
Jonathan,
You will never regret your decision if you love firefighting. I have done this over 38 years between volunteer and paid and I still get the same rush. Work hard and have fun and stay safe. You can't buy a job like we have.
I may be wrong, but if your state doesn't have Fed OSHA, there is still a state organized Safety and Health Administration. We do all have to take care of each other but when we are battling the devil, we can't pay attention to everything. Being a safety officer myself and having been cast in that roll long before I was even a fire fighter may have my sense of "safety" skewered but it is an important part of a FD to have someone taking charge of "looking out for everyone". Good luck.
