FDNY EMS Candidates

I'm going to the quarter master tomorrow morning. So when they don't have certain gear, we supposed to go through the academy without it? Or it is ordered and we'll get it at some point.
 
The BI jacket we got fitted for but They have to put our names on it. So they said we will get it later

To those who are graduating today, congrats. you've made it. can't wait to see you in the streets.

To those going in. good luck. don't be an *******. just do the right thing. everything you do from here on out can go on your fdny record. lateness and uniform is a big deal, you can and will get written up, and it'll look bad on your record, especially if you're thinking about any medic/fire promo.

Good luck
 
I saw that 174 graduated today. Isn't it 360 to start? Only less than half graduated?

Great day and it was a day we all worked hard towards to achieving and now tomorrow we hit our stations on our first day of work .
To all going in on Monday good luck.
Make sure you pass the knowledge just as @mattchew did for us and I passed along to you.
Don't be @$$holes and listen up, follow instructions and RESPECT THE INSTRUCTORS get written up enough times and YOU WILL GET DISMISSED OUT

Good luck

Hey Tech, I just wanted to say thank you for all of the effort you've been putting out on here to get us noobs on pace with everything. Seriously you've been a big help. I took your advice for paperwork / picture day and dressed formally and was glad I did. So thank you for that!

I had a quick question about gear issuance at QM: what exactly is the BI jacket? I saw your comprehensive post about QM and it said we leave with the BI jacket. What does that look like? Because I'm not sure if I received one. I only have two "coats" to speak of. I'm assuming ones the class A and the other is the rain coat (looks like a trench coat).

You are welcome and Good Luck

BI jacket is the windbreaker with winter lining, if the Quarter Master is out of them they will order it for you.
look over your receipt and it will say B/O aka Back order.
Again good luck in the Academy.

I don't think there's too much you can do right now. Best advice I can think of is just stay out of trouble and stay in shape. Typically FDNY EMS has an announcement to apply from DCAS every September. Although, this year they did it in July and September so I guess there is no way to tell when they will do it next. Just study for the state exam and pass it and then look out for the next announcement to apply for FDNY. Until then, stay in shape and stay out of trouble.

Welp, today was uniform day. It went well.

.....Then I found out I forgot my hat....I'm getting sworn in Monday.

I'm ****ing doomed, it's...it's great. The whole day not trying to get on anybody's radar and I'm about to pull a Hiroshima on myself without even trying.

Because of that damn hat. They said to come in early on Monday it will be given to me.

I'm fearing the worst.....They won't kick me out because of a hat (I would think). However, I have to work that much harder because I'm the idiot who forgot his hat on orientation day., and I don't want to be that idiot.

I just wanna do my job and stay out of everyone's way.

It was when I was taking everything out to of my bag for the QM to check (ironically) to see if I had everything. I did. It was when I was packing everything back in I must forgot it.

By the time I found out, I was home. They tried calling me as I was making my way home, but were unable to get me. I called them back and they were PRETTY chill about it and said come in early to HQ at 9 metrotech and......something will happen ?

(While chill....they were pretty/kind of vague about what's gonna happen)

But yeah that's how it went down. I'm horrified yet anxious.....but also horrified, mostly horrified, completely horrified. Because if my memory serves memory VERY important people are supposed to be at this swear-in.

and I'm about to show my a** to them all. F**k. (I mean granted it's over a hat....but still it's the impression it leaves)

I'll stand out, but this isn't the way I wanted to do it.
