I spent some time as a full time firefighter. When we would get the rare call to get a cat out of a tree, we would ask people if they had ever seen a cat skeleton in a tree...no you say? Well they obviously get down on their own.
Yea they're slugs everywhere..
The problem is that you will never be able to convince the general public how demanding a job being a firefighter really is. All they see are station tours, and safety talks...they don't see the 2am structure fire with people hanging out of windows after you have spent all day trying to make the tax payers happy.
I hate it that y'all feel that way. Firefighters are heros to so many people. Loud mouths that say other wise aren't the ones you should listen to. Just like college football fans.![]()
