Number one, you said "job", wrong, its a life. number 2, its not for everyone. Number three, if losing the life of one person a day really bothers you than maybe this is really not the job you want. What about mass casualty incidents? number 4, you got to get hard sometimes, .. otherwise it will eat at you, like it seems to be doing. Enjoy the Brotherhood, its like nothing else. Take strength from those willing to give it. Show your compassion. Think about it. God Bless Brother!!

@BootyBot Yes. Firefighters have SCBA's. Self Contained Breathing Apparatus. In a burning building, that is your life-line.

@devanmills1 "if you see a firefighter bragging and how much it didn't affect him beware"? What do you mean by this?
And I have a question... Do you have gear to protect you from the smoke and toxic fumes? I just got my EMT cert and am considering becoming a firefighter... I would much prefer dying from trauma than a slow death from pulmonary disease. I know it probably sounds ridiculous but if you get the time could you answer?

@shaun6906 You got some real truth in there! Fire and Rescue Service is not for showing off. It is for keepin you and me both safe, and yes, I'll risk my life for a stranger and all the other stuff that is asked from me. However, dying for a foundation is nothing I prefer for neither of us. A good officer knows when there is nothing to save anymore. Going in and taking out a fully involved fire only makes the job harder for the insurance company when they tear it down.

nice video from california twp bass lake vol. fire department IN
@paintbllwizard also i speak from the heart and the knowledge to back it up im a firefighter i love this job i wouldnt do anything else by now i dont how to do anything else its not about what you do its who you are. this is not a job its "the job" iv been around death, despair, seen peoples lives destroyed its heartbreaking. if you see a firefighter bragging about how much he saw this happen and it didnt affect him. beware.. were not heroes were firefighters and god give us a reason for living

@paintbllwizard its a little bit (whole lot) harder than that i would definitely recommend the vollie route first to see if its a job you can do because i promise being a firefighter is not what hollywood portrays it as. you dont always save the day, your not always the hero, and your not gonna get rich. if you like staying up all night using every ounce of possible bit of energy to help for ( most of the time ) no thanks at all this may be your kind of work. if not i wouldnt recommend it
