I mean no disrespect, I was a firefighter/emt for 10 yeard before I joined the guard to do just that... It's a joke... My fire chief who got the job jus because he was an E-7 88mike... Has no idea how to runa fire department, had no idea how to be a fire chief, and didnt turn any of our EMT/Paramedic training hours in, and our certs lapsed.. I have been a medic for 10 years, and have to fucking take the course over again.......
