EFM training today. Yay!

Haha, I remember being a twenty-something salt. For me it wasn’t so fun, mostly because I had no clue what I was so salty about.

Kids? Never. A house? Pffth. I can’t help but look back at my own level of dumbassery and laugh at it. Live and learn.

Derailing, Hook- Blues Traveler. Solid tempo for a run. Deuces.

A little gift to myself for painting the whole house in a day and a half. Reverse seared ribeye finished over cedar coals and washed down with a good glass of bourbon.

Running on the treadmill at station every shift seems to be paying off. Earlier this year I was dying to hit 2 miles in 20 min, last night I went out and ran 2mi in 16:40.

15:54 is the min standard for Airborne School (Lord it's been 13 years since I spent those weeks in the Georgia heat...) so especially since tryna get back into Army WOCS is a goal, that's where I wanna get to

EFM training today. Yay!

EFM?

 

[CALEMT]

EFM?

Emergency ****ing management?

 

[NomadicMedic]

I bought a used Prius as a commuter car today.

...my friends all promptly proceeded to bust my balls. Apparently I now need a man bun and it’s mandatory that I become a vegan.

Of behalf of the united association of men I herby declare you excommunicado. Your man card privileges are revoked.

 

[NomadicMedic]

I still have a Chevy 2500. I’m just tired of paying 90 bucks a week in gas to go to work.

It's OK man, I drive a CR-V as a daily. I can drive two weeks on a tank of gas. I can't drive my GMC past a gas station.

 

[Jim37F]

I just have an extremely short commute.
Spent 35 bucks for a half tank ($2.99/gal)(average 10-11mpg) and the last time I got gas was a month ago

 

[CALEMT]

60$ in diesel to and from work. OR $80 in gas to and from work. Never thought I would see the day a 3/4 ton diesel gets better mpg's than a V6 Toyota Tacoma.

 

[Jim37F]

Hmm, apparently there's a big auto extrication a block away from my parents house in LA Co

You could've did what I did and bought a motorcycle. That would give you bonus points!

Probably my worst subject since we don’t ever do them at my base.

Not diesel but I went from getting 16 in my old frontier to 19.5 with an f150. And when I go back to commuting to work, that number will go over 20 again. Fire academy is bad for mpg, and also health.

 

[VentMonkey]

Man, I don’t give a **** what I drive. Does it get me from point A to point B reliably? Sold.

My wife’s looking at a Sienna for the new baby. I’d drive that too. Hell, I drive my wife’s Highlander with the Wonder Woman sticker on it.

@CALEMT that is a gnarly looking piece of steak.

Allright! I've been wanting one!

Lol...I spend $300ish on diesel every other day.

I've done 1 in 2.5 years and it barely met the requirement for EFM.
