DPW members have union contracts! That would never fly!

Which departments are you talking about?

ITS YOUR LIFE!

I dont think OSHA or the NFPA would really like the idea of you guys standing up. Plus if you guys crashed someone might have died! Why would you post the video or even tell anyone this? Does the driver know he would be responsible if one of you died? NOT TO SMART!

I started as vol. only to get were i am today but what does that have to do with the subject at hand? You dont like the fact that i promote the career side of firefightering? If you dont then that is to bad! Look at the original question on the subject it has to do with a dept. who has vol. members not showing up for a call. Thats not good if you live in that house that might be on fire or are in need of medical help. My answer was clear and remains the same. IF YOU CANT GET VOLS. THEN GET PROFESSIONALS WHO WILL BE THERE ALL THE TIME. REPEAT ALL THE TIME. Im not going to candy coat so i dont hurt someones feelings. EFD 184

If the tax payers want reliable fire and ems service that is the direction they would need to go if the situation does not get better.

If this is becoming all to common on ALL types of calls then it is time for CHANGE! The answer is a career staff! The boys up there may not like the answer but they are the ones not showing up soooooooo oh well.

I have the answer! Hire career members that will be on 24hrs a day 7 days a week 365 days a year!

R.I.P Brother My thoughts and prayers go out to the family during this difficult time.

Congrats guys ,stay safe. Remember senior men never empty the dishwasher!

i hope this gets better for you guy's

Its a shame that the brothers there have to work like this. The higher ups should be ashamed of themselves to let this happen. Good luck brothers

that was great!

i bet if we all had homes of that value we would want the same thing! as for the FIREBREAK SPRAY SYSTEM i just watched a video on it and it seems like a good idea if you're in that type of forest fire danger zone.

playland will come pick up the board! can you call them @914 755 4591 im just relaying a message from the head of EMS overthere

they should have had the police there to arrest the idiots and the throw them out of the department for good!

thank you brother

being they are asking for a professional firefighter anyone know what the work hours are like?

i actually had a MTA train conductor flash a badge at me and told me to pull over because he didnt like the fact that i didnt move as soon as the light turned green. i laughed at him then called the police who ended up issuing him a summons from what i was told. bottom line dont flash the badge you just bought online to look cool!

any info on the JOB RELATED ILLNESS

EMT BRAVO why were all the other threads from that topic erased?
