well i was talking to my neighbor today who happens to be a fire marshall, and he was telling me about the greatness of being a fire fighter... right now i actually think i am going to go for it... i think im going to give up on engineering for now...
he said i can start off when im 18 retire when im 38 and be set for pretty much the rest of my life... i of course woudnt quit after 20 years, but its a nice thought... and he said that i would work 24 hrs then take 72 off... i like that... and plus the pay (as he was telling me) is really good. he told me that since he would be sponsering me that i would get in and get hired right away
and to make things better they would pay for skewl... 100% for A's, 75% for B's and 50% for C's but nothing for D's...
anyways is there anyone on here that is, and can tell me the disadvantages to being a firefighter?
thanks
