Firefighters check in..

Any Firefighters in the house?

I put in 8 years when I was younger as a volunteer but gave it up because I hated the B.S polotics and butt kissing.

I'm thinking of joining again along with my kid who is now old enough to be an Explorer.

i thought about doing the professional firefighter thing wheni was coming out of highschool. decided the airforce would be better. my dad has been a professional firefighter for almost 30 years.

I always wondered...why is it firemen go to a house on fire, it burns down to the ground, and they high five each other for a job well done?

because no one died. they arent there to save the house.

Oh.....

(We had a love/hate relationship where I worked with our fire guys. They would reply with..."Why would you chase a guy for 3 blocks wanting to throw him in jail, but when he passes out, you perform CPR on him?")

Honestly, I always wanted to be one, and I'd still love to go into it. However, the Marine Corps is my main squeeze for a little while for now
