Better? Only $12 too.

I'm going on a firefighter gear shopping spree to motivate me to survive the next 16 weeks. I bought an LED survivor light too :unsure:

I have a star of life inside a flaming Maltese cross tattooed on my right deltoid. It was meant to be a combination fire/EMS tattoo but it comes off as just EMS to most people. It isn't obnoxious with any sayings on it nor is it in plain site. Since it turned into more of an EMS tattoo I...

Guess that shirt was a poor choice for an example, but you are arguing with me for the sole purpose of arguing as you do with almost everyone on this forum. The name suits you. But, I will humor you. I don't believe I ever stated that ALL of my co-workers are losers. I've stated as to the...

I think it makes your service and profession to look like a joke to wear something like this Sorry but it just makes people look like a loser. Company/department shirts and jackets no problem whatsoever. I wear them too. Why does it surprise you I don't think the same? Historically we...

That heart clip is adorable. Congrats though ;)

Doing pushups on jagged asphalt is painful.

Fire Academy - Day 1 >.<

So is EMS:rofl:

Fair enough. I tend to forget that most people don't suffer like we do with overpriced everything over here...

I still work other places as a medic. Just much calmer relaxed places :)

100k isn't much these days. Why is it unreasonable to be paid that and have your health insurance covered?

The worst thing you could possibly come across is any form of legitimate incident involving children. End of story, no one can argue worse. Otherwise, it is what it is. Depends on what kind of person you are. Nothing phases me to be honest unless it is happening to me. I sleep fine at night. I...
