 My name is Jake Box and before the CFA I was a forklift driver. My hobbies include playing footy and having fun. Before the CFA, I didn't really know much about the CFA. I didn't even know. I had paid Firefighters until about three years ago. I thought it was all volunteer based. The most rewarding part of the recruit training is meeting a different range of people and becoming friends with everyone, lifelong friends. The toughest part about being a firefighter was probably, I would say, sending it casually. I think that had hit me pretty hard the first time I've ever seen it. I've become a firefighter because it's a job you could be proud of. You're proud to talk about your work when you go home.
