Guess I can start the new year by finally adding CCP-C to the title on my flight suit.

I need to get a blanket for my work bag. I’ve been stuck posting for the past 2 hours or so and even with the heat on I’m freezing. It’s 39 out.
Probably gonna do a hog hunt in GA later this year. Never have done that before.

Celebrated 6 months of dating with my boyfriend. Hopefully it won't be too long until we're in a good spot to be engaged. Ups and downs sure, but we've both been putting energy into being better for ourselves, each other, and as providers and just in general.
Having a frustrating time with a used laptop he bought from Bookface locally.
Does anyone have experience with gateway not found issues? It could be my home network. Normal Google and troubleshooting isn't working.
Is there a way to choose between if it connects to my Wifi's 2.4 or 5 mhz channel?
School should start in a few weeks. We're not sure when.
Got on Vyvanse. Took it once as a trial run after the sleep study. Got super OCD and like motivated or something? and cleaned everything.
Sleep study completed. Waiting on results. My drug test came back squeaky clean. Of course.
While on vacation, for the first time in my life, had sleep paralysis. That was absolutely terrifying. Of course that was after the study and when they asked if I'd had it before, I said no.
I'm slowly getting on top of bills. Paying down my credit cards. Feels good to see some progress.
Looking for other jobs still.
Busy as a bee over here.

Most of the time that I've seen that gateway not found issue is when the internet cable is plugged into the wrong port on the router. Other times it is because DHCP is misconfigured in the router.
Your 5.7GHz SSID should have the 5 appended on to the end of it...connect to that one.

this used to be the case but a lot of newer equipment shares the SSID for both 2.4ghz and 5ghz and does not separate them. best practice is for the client to pick. there's also stuff like channel width to deal with as well.
we need lots more information though.

Had my last day on the truck, went skiing, and am now running errands...18 week municipal fire academy starts tomorrow. First time I won’t be working 24s/48s since 2013.
Welcome to the dark side. Good luck in the academy.

Why are paid volunteer firefighters a thing.
Judging by some of the ones I've met that handshake is just dropping their hand down each other's pants. But exhibit A for me also has a "brotherhood" tattoo as well as POV lights and computer so.....

Lots of reasons...most which have to do with money.
Recruitment and retention. Some states require reimbursement for clothing allowance, etc.

Yup. Places want part timers around for a smaller stipend than a full paid force. Sometimes a minimal crew or just drivers. Sometimes the call volume doesn't justify having someone 24/7 but it is beneficial during certain hours.
Paid EMS responders are a regular thing near me. Many fire districts utilize either per diem or full time staff for at least daytime weekday hours

Well. I finally took the "A job interview goes both ways" to heart.
I want to showcase my skills and interests, passion, but as well as my drive and expectations.
I got, not aggressive, per se, but forward in my questions and clear.
Not great PCR software, use of tablets (I don't like tablets), but every truck does have a monitor at least here.
They say they'll work with school.
No paid CE or recert help, no school reimbursement.
No stations. 15-16 hour shifts are standard.
Pay is more than a 2$ cut unless they ante up current pay. About 2 year old company from prior experience where they sold out to Acadian, but they only now started annual performance reviews.
They said I was very impressed with me and how professional I was.
Uniform seems reasonable, but no stipend.
No guarantee of getting 911.
At least there's no non competition agreement, they want disclosure.
No 401K.
At least they have workman's comp.
But they seemed very happy how well I spoke, my questions and engagement and honesty.
But they haven't sold me.
Time to submit more applications.
