Things tend to be that way when your pulling down 1000+ hrs of OT since the start of fire season.

 

Much respect to you all!!

I was working as a FF and I absolutely hated it.. (dont kill me, I come in peace lol)
I Just couldn't stand the people/calls. I was pretty devastated when I quit. I really wanted to like the job, but I felt extremely unhappy.

 

Shocked no one smacked you yet for saying that curse word..

Its October... of course it’s dead. It’s the fire prevention truffle shuffle.

 

Hey all. Checking in from Memphis TN. Started out as a Memphis City Firefighter/Paramedic and I’ve been a Lt now for almost 12 years (no Captains here). Fire season here is just starting to roll. I’ve heard two go out before noon today. I’ve got about 26 years in the fire service, with 20 here in Memphis. Y’all stay safe out there!

 

Same here, starting to pick up fire wise, EMS is non stop.

 

The A-shift guys made an apartment job last night, and yesterday afterternoon a house came in at the other end of our battalion. There was also a two alarm commercial job in North Memphis. A couple of weeks ago we made 2 houses just around the corner from each other. Both of them getting it pretty good in the middle of the day. (Arson). Temp dropped 20 degrees today, so I figure we may make something tonight. Memphis is on the Detroit plan. Never a dull moment!

 

Greeting, 23 years as a volunteer FF, currently hold the position of deputy chief of a suburban department.

Stay safe.

 

Calfire assigned to truck 8 engine 8 and patrol 8. Largest truck in Cali with a 115 stick worth both sched a and b though my house is an a house at a casino,

 

Any forest service peeps out there ?

 

I'm in California right now. In Burbank visiting family.

 

SAR and Swift water rescue volunteer.

My father and brother are volunteer firefighters I never joined for one reason. (They had a scuba team ditched it years ago) we have a major river running through the center of town and the fireco/city WILL NOT consider anything water rescue related when they could have funding from the County.

 

Last night work, then off for the weekend.

 

I had twenty years on the structural side before making a change 2 months ago getting hired as an ARFF firefighter. I figured it would be a good way to finish out my career (running mostly medicals), it’s just tough being a probie again at 48 years old.

 

I just got off from working King shocks battle at Primm... one of my better shifts I must admit haha no fires, major medical calls or crashes easy weekend haha

 

LEO from East Tennessee checking in, next month will make 33 years and I have no plans of stopping any time soon as I still love the job.
