I missed all the fun tonight............

You guys going to Coos have a safe trip. Sorry to those that had to cancel, there will be a next time.
Happy B-day WingyDingyDude..........

Well I guess I better try to go to bed, don't want to be to tired and run the big red truck off the road should we get up in the middle of the night.........again [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]
Geesh....... Work 6 days in July and August, come back to work and have to work 48 hours, yuck.
Especially when the freaky yahoos are out and decide to call us out for freaky stuff every hour or so after midnight...
Hope our luck is better tonight [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]
But, I wouldn't change it for nothing [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

 

if it makes you feel any better,,,,i think you have a cool job

its got to be rewarding at times

and you guys get to play with a bunch of cool toys too

 

Thanks Mark,
I totally agree, it is the coolest job, I wouldn't change it for nothing..
There are drawback and sacrifices, but the benefits and rewards are what make it worth while [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]
I'm very fortunate and grateful for what I have.

I say this a lot though, and mean it......I would not want to do a lot of you folks jobs out there.
There are no 40 hour work weeks any more, people are busy, and run themselves ragged having to work so much.
Then they have to try and make things up on the weekend, and try to have time to play.
There are many on here that know what I mean, you all work your tails off.
This is truly a GREAT group of people, as we often say [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

I go to work for 24 hours at a time (48 yesterday and today), and work 72 hours in a week....
But our schedule make it a lot easier to do that than most of your jobs........

I love my time off, as time goes by, I like it even more.......
Usually, if there is going to be "good" calls, I want to be there.
"Good" meaning that we really have to be on our toes and do our best to save/help someone.
In July and August, I missed some of those calls that happen when I should have been working.
And it doesn't break my heart. We had some pretty bad ones on my shift.
Most notable, I would have been working the day the construction worker got ran over by the dump truck. Not a pretty one.
On one hand I'm glad I wasn't there, but kinda wish I was. I only wish I was because we had a brand new rookie out here working for me and he had to see it. I'm sure that he'll remember that one for a while.
I've been around the block and seen much worse in 20 years, and can deal with it. But it's gotta be hard for a guy with less that a year on the job to see that stuff, cause you don't see that every day.

 

Gotta run, somebody calling in a burn complaint on their neighbor.....gggrrrrrrr

nighty night, soon to be good morning to some [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]
