Stinks for the residency requirement. I live right over the border and work in West Chester country for the past two years.

For this reason, social services are being focused on in order help reduce EMS call volume, and additionally, help people kick their drug habit. We started doing this with our frequent flyers.

It has gone well in the past and I am sure it will go well during this testing as well. If you want a Fire Job you are willing to go though extreme measures to secure that. If that includes calling them up and asking if you move to Hartford right now will that let you take the test... Well by god let that happen.
