I have to say this.....Volunteers are just like anyone else....some do and some don't put in their fair share......(and yes, I am a volunteer)....so please do-not make generalizations.....especially if they haven't been thought through...it only created bad feelings......Paul
There can be people who are faithful on bothsides. But stories keep coming up of those who are making it bad on all of us.
There have been those who have stolen from their depts and other depts, gotten drunk and caused problems, got in fights, not treating sick, injuried or dying people correctly or not even helping them and the worst setting fires.
It seems that if you want faithful people in the service you have be sure they understand that they are part of a of something that people look to help them in their time of needed and not someone that will pick their pocket while they lay on a ambulance cot or rob their house while it burns.
I have heard the stories of the bad ones and hope that the good of those that did right over ride those stories.
