  • Farefighters are BOSS

  • Yea we do need jobs that pay people,

    jobs are hard to get now a days and they will only get harder.

    the thing is that this man had so much passion about his job that he did it with out pay. but now he does get payed.

    Nothing is free, not even a job. You must sacrifice.

  • @TheSourRPickle Go to your local fire station and ask them.

  • @Vegetto2011 Nope. No matter where you volunteer, it is very rare that you get paid. No matter if you do great or bad, but after some time you get a chance to get a full-time job (like he did) and get paid an annual fee.

  • @123NYPD that's why nobody will remember you.
