Very kool nice going seth. Keep up the good work, and thank you!

Recently our EMS department has put up signs in the village to have people interested in joining our department come over and ask questions on what we do or how the processes goes to apply to join. Now we have had some success with it, but I want to see what other departments do in and around the area. So my question to all of you is what’s your trade secrets of the trade on how to get people interested in volunteering. Thanks all and see ya guys later

Happy Halloween to everyone hope you or your kids get as much candy as possible. I think Foamy sums it up the best for this holiday. Foamy and his thoughts on Halloween.

As i was reading all the post on employment for becomeing a firefighter for Westchester. I came across something, is MVFD the the only fire department in the county that has a lower age requirement, and the only department that does not need collage credits to apply? Also why do you need to be in collage anyways to become a fire fighter or a police officer? Just some questions that i have on my mind that i was hopeing that this place can help me with. Thanks all.

That’s a really cool picture website. It’s so cool to think how far firefighting goes back, and the differences in equipment back in those days were. Thanks for sharing it with us

Well I’m pretty much brand new to whole EMS thing. I’ve only been involved with EMS for only 3 years. My motivation is two thing really. One is my parents unfortunately. I grew up with sick parents my dad already had 2 quadruple open heart surgery’s. Plus he’s a bladder cancer survivor. My mom had open heart surgery once and is also a breast cancer survivor. So unfortunately I grew up around hospital, doctors, and medications. Which really was that bad, but to a young kid it was trying at times. I was always festinated by emergency medicine. I always look out my door when every I heard a siren go by my house or I saw flashing lights.( yes I know I’m a buff) It was all so exciting for me though. My second motivation would be something that really got me and I would thing other people started in this field. That was 9/11. When I saw those towers fall something inside of me said I’ve got to do some thing . At the time I was only 15 so there where no ambulance cores that would be available to take me, but once I was 16 I join a volunteer ambulance core, and I’ve been doing that ever since. To me I think is good that I have training in certain emergency’s,. like for me I would like to think that if anything happen to my parents I would be there first and be properly train to help them and not go-( oh my god what do I do now). I mean it never hurts to know how to do CPR, or split a fx. Arm, or just help out if you know you can. To me that’s one of the best feeling in the world know that you made a somewhat difference in someone life. Whether it be: holding someone hand to the hospital to make them feel more comfortable, or doing compressions on a person . You are still trying to help that person in there time of need, and I love doing that. Anyways theses are the reason why I love doing what I do, and what keeps me motivated. And I’m glad to share it with you all

How much longer until you graduate dude?

that's not the bad part. It's the accracy that's going to be the problem for me alest.

I did!!! Now the typeing exam is next, and from what i heard that is the hardest part.

Not fancy outputs just check out the other post i made How to record live audio?

Don't hate Because i'm better looking than you. That's just immature

Couldn't of said it better my self. Also, congrats on the Hartsdale job Seth. You deserve it! -vinny

Not a bad i idea!!! but Art needs alot more help than that he need alest a Keg or two and than i lady will Maybe talk to him!!!

the person who does that website doesn't have the time anymore. It would be cool though. there have been some interesting call since then.

What about Q 104.3. Don't you Old guys( ) listen to that kind of rock stuff. I'm sorry for you guys but i listen to what you guys call computer music A.K.A 103.5 K.T.U.

I was think how can it be so clear oh well win some lose some i guess. I'll still watch i don't care

Bump... I just want to get some thoughts on what you guys think of season 2 so far. Me personally I love it. I like it when they put the helmet camera on and I can see what all you firefighter see. I think it’s amazing those kind of shots.

Candy eh... well we have alot of JR. memebers but what about getting older memebers to join any ideas?

I wouldn't go that far dude. There have been a lot of post's by people that have NO FREAKIN clue of what's going on, and bashing the people that did and were trying to make the record right. All I’m saying is if you don't like the way things are going. Then ether try to make it better by just asking the moderators or just leave. It's that simple. There’s no ego trip. It's just people that they are trying to make it a place where professionals can come and discuss events that have and/or had happen or try to improve there skills. I’ve talk to some very nice people on here and they’ve help me a lot with work related problems. They know who they are on here, and that’s what this place is for. It’s a hangout or a place to see what’s going on in the county and recently around the U.S. not to talk about Paid or Volunteer , or Medic v. EMT, or to say this department should of done this, or that department suck or whatever. It’s people like that who know the rules about this place and knowingly disobeys them that the moderators are getting tried of, and I say boot them if you have too. Just my 2 cents P.S. if anyone is ofened by this post i'm sorry. I just thought is had to be said.

what was the topic?

opps my bad

Na it just wants your tower latter
